There comes a point in any front wheel drive car that too much power is impossible to put down properly. In a rear wheel drive car its fun and can be controlled to a point by feeding in the steering. But in a FWD car it ruins the handling. The chassis is the key to getting the power down properly and with a bit of tweaking here and there it can be improved but ultimately if the car isn’t up to the job it’s a bit of a waste of time and money. Especially as all you can hope to do is create a lot of tyre smoke and noise which on public roads is irresponsible and dangerous. On a track however it’s bloody good fun. Hope your going to up rate the brakes, suspension and tyres.
