well I'll tell you FF is not so easy to drive. Well they say FF is the easiest to drive and the hardest to master. Cuz it grips really well but because of it's understeer characteristics it can plow into things. Now I'm a firm believe in car tuning and driving skills. Your car will not be fast if you don't drive it fast. Combine skills with proper car tuning and you got one quick car. The key to tackling the corners in a FF is how well you can effectively manage understeer. If you use proper weight tranfer and don't overspeed your 2GNT will take corners fast. Tuning your car for more oversteer helps also, plus tires help a whole lot.

Our cars are pretty heavy I'll admit it, it's not quite as nimble as a civic or integra but it's cornering abilities are decent if driven well. Our chassis are very strong able to effectively handle 200+ HP, you might wanna reinforce the chassis with strut bars though.

As for drag racing, FF is good because you get not so much drivetrain loss. So you loose less power through moving parts. I'm guessing its traction is worse than FR because you shift weight to the rear when you accelerate so it'll lighten the front giving you less traction.

Hehe FFs can drift also if you know how..
