Furthermore, you're unable to understand the definition of a "cornering limit".

Finally, your anecdotal evidence of how your 4wd vehicle behaves on a track below the cornering limits of the tires is completely irrelevant to the discussion, and yet you persist with this useless argument.

Therefore, I leave you and all the others who own these vehicles to enjoy your belief that it provides you with "better cornering" at the very limit of adhesion between the tire and the road surface. Hopefully your ignorance won't kill you someday.

BTW, you have many beliefs that are in fundamental opposition to the laws of physics that have been pointed out to you in the past and you refuse to understand your ignorance. This just adds another to that list.


Having an engineering degree does not automatically make whatever you have an opinion about correct, just as having an Architectural license make anything I think true without proof.

And...I will take your lack of response to mean that you cannot cite any science which will refute my evidence, that you don't own a 4wd vehicle and you have never in fact driven one at the limits of adhesion.
