actually, rear wheel drive usually turns better because the front wheels can have a higher steering angle and higher caster. Most FWD cars are so much shorter than old RWD, that makes up the difference. Actually, I disagree with a lot of you statements, but I guess thats beside the point. RWD is easy to make because everything has extra room to work on, problem is its stretched out. FWD is nice and compact, but has a lot of stuff to fit into a small area.
FWD pushes, RWD oversteers. either car set up right will handle properly though.
