One of the most-asked questions I've heard through the years is how driving Front-Wheel-Drive (FWD) cars differs from driving Rear-Wheel-Drive (RWD) cars. I've answered these questions in pretty much the same way for the past couple of decades, but this time I'm going to a source who has proven he knows what it takes to be fast in FWD - as well as in RWD cars. Johan Schwartz won the 2015 Pirelli World Challenge TCB championship driving a FWD Chevy Sonic, which says something about his FWD driving expertise. He then went on to compete in a couple of Trans-Am races in high-powered RWD cars. Oh, and did I mention that Johan is in the Guinness Book of World Records for the longest drift? So he knows something about RWD cars, too. Who better to compare FWD to RWD driving technique?
