Just a quick peek at the winners, and which end drives the car:
SS-CSL - R (8)
DS - ESL - F (4)
FS/L - R (2)
GS - HSL - F (4)
ASP - BSP/L - R (4)
CSP/L - F (2)
DSP-ESPL - R (4)
AP-DP/L - R (8)
EP - F (1)
EPL - R (1)
AM-EM - R (10)
ST/L - F (2)
That's 37 for the cars with the "old, outdated rule" and 13 for the "no
fair, my type of car wasn't really mass produced when the rule was made"
guys and gals.
That's ~3-1 in favor of the rear drivers, and me thinks that most, if not
all the winners are running a non-oem front bar. For that matter, that goes
for the FWD crowd as well.
Somehow, I don't think that it's broke..
