catdaddy300 Posted December 2, 2008 Report Share Posted December 2, 2008 alright i have an 05 awd ss and i have a buddy with a like 04 2wd vho and his is very modified. i we went from like a 30 roll and he got me by like a truck length and probly more..... but from a dead stop i wooped that ass (twice) by like 2 to 2 1/2 truck lengths, now none of this was on a strip or anything and not too far either but how much faster is a awd than a 2wd off the line???

Fireman31 Posted December 2, 2008 Report Share Posted December 2, 2008 An AWD SSS will get out of the hole better then a RWD SSS/VHO/VMax....but the RWD will have a better top end then the AWD. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1 Fast SS Posted December 2, 2008 Report Share Posted December 2, 2008 Yep. It's the weight difference. The 2wd will pull on top end. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CenWaSS Posted December 2, 2008 Report Share Posted December 2, 2008 From a dig on the street its AWD all the way. At the track its a diffrent story, my buddy's (OUT2WIN)2WD SS at the track is pulling 13.80's compared to my 14.15. We have very similiar 60fts (within 0.01) but he has about 4mph more through the traps. We have similiar mods as well, though I do have a shift kit and TBTC. Hope that helps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

speedline Posted December 4, 2008 Report Share Posted December 4, 2008 My opinion-Everything else being the same, RWD will spin the driving wheels faster because the power isn't working two axles. AWD will have more grunt to get out of the hole. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
