My Volvo is a 4.4L V8 RX-8's had nothing in the corners on me, and I own an RX-8 ![]() Wanna race! 2000 Lincoln LS V8 0-60 time 7.5sec (I don't think Chris' is a V8) 2007 Volvo S80 V8 0-60 time 6.0sec Just stating facts. Now the Lincoln is based on a Jaguar platform, which is also what the newer Thunderbirds were based on. The RWD is a benefit to the Lincoln. My Volvo is a FWD based AWD using a Haldex system, at full split it will run 35% front, 65% rear. Problem is that I cannot completely disable the DSTC, turning it off only removes the braking and engine retard function. Yaw control and wheel spin control are still fully operational, which can get in the way. Try as I might I could not get it to sidestep, even a little. In an empty parking lot thought.....AWD burnout are possible.....and quite fun! But it doesn't really matter in the end. I have never been on a race track. I'm a Dragon tamer.
