Driving style evolution

To Sami
To coach2, in my opinion, as described earlier, there is no difference in front wheel or rear wheel slide except that in front wheel slide you have lesser methods to correct that... Exaggeration: in front wheel slide you open the steering a bit and wait patiently something to happen and hope you dont hit a big tree, in rear wheel slide the real driving has just begun!!!

I do not know how familiar you are with the left foot breaking, or if you now how much the right caster-angel can do to the handling of the FWD cars.
It is perhaps more difficult to learn the right way to drive with FWD, but if you do, the problems you describe, will disappear.

which is the rwd car that is faster than a 306kit car or xsara kit car?

For competition I would think the set up of the car is more important than the wheels driving it.

BMW M3 that I'm driving in the next rally, to mention an example.

This shows that RWD can be successful on tarmac as well...of course the era is different but still.

Why serious rally preparation teams do not prepare RWD cars anymore for rallying ??

call and tell when and where that is, i want to see that for sure.

Maybe not right to compare a group of a rwd with a kitcar fwr. If a manufacturer had made a rwd-kitcar, that would probably have to be very good on asphalt. The best-2wd car ever made is most likely rwd. 037.

In what way is that? Nice looking car, but not good drivability, what I have been told from guys who did drive that in the past.

Because there are not any rwd cars anymore with small engines(>2000cc)
Bigger from 2000cc are going to be in same class as the 4wd ones.And 4wd are not going to loose from any fwd/rwd today.
