With a front wheel drive car, when you launch is all the power always going to be sent to the same wheel?

Will the left or right wheel consistently break traction first because of the unequal length axles? Or is it random?

should be random.. I dont they they make them differnet lenghts.. but try to get them as close in lenght as possible..

im not to sure on this, although a better diff should allow for the power to go to both wheels rather than one

midrange will become famous soon enough
it will send power to both wheels however if one tire is on ice and the other on dry pavement, the power will go all to that one tire.. very random but even at most part
