Hi all
Do any of you pilot pedal cars that have a fix 2WD rear axle ? As opposed to 2WD that uses some form of differential ? Are there any draw backs ? Paul

Paul, I imagine the draw backs are the same as for a car with a welded diff'. Poor tight cornering ability (wants to go straight on), wheel scrub/ tyre wear and tendency to shear drive shafts. Great for drifting though if you have enough power!
