Carrera 2 Vs Carrera 4
Hello!
I am wondering what you guys think of the RWD Carreras (2 & S) and the variable 4WD Carreras (4 & 4S). I hear many different things such as: Carrera RWDs are easier to slide (get the tail out), more nimble, etc. but the Carrera 4WDs understeer in tight bends, but are "safer" in wet/icy conditions. I have also heard that the 4WD Carreras do not understeer and that they literally pull you into the direction you steer at (transfers extra power to front wheels when required) and some even drift. I have also heard that in some cases a 4WD Carrera can lap a track faster than its 2WD equivalent. A 2WD Carrera wears out its rear tyres after about 3k of spirited local driving but its front tyres are still in v. good condition. Would a 4WD Carrera be the same or would its front tyres be left with less tread?
Please help me separate fact from myth...
