FWD probably has the advantage due to weight. AWD has the traction but that's not enough.

The current fastest SVX in the 1/4 is FWD.

Do you know what's been done? I was looking for his user profile, but couldn't find it, oddly.

Yes, Poweredx2 is the fastest overall and he had nitrous. I still say the AWD's are faster though because I could hit the nitrous that much sooner and not fear loss of traction. I've driven my car in FWD when it was still pretty stock and I couldn't keep the tires from spinning on even moderate launches. Benebob and I are the fastest N/A auto SVX's. His is stripped down and a pure racer and runs 14.2 and has 4.11 gears(And boy is it fun to drive!), And mine is an everyday driver with full interior and all accessories and runs 14.9 with 4.44 gears. And yes, We are both AWD.
