Exclamation

Can someone explain exactly how a "torque split" works for a 4WD car.

I'm changing the "50/50" scoob for a car with a 60% rear and 40% front split, but can't get it clear in my tiny mind how this actually works. I keep getting tied up with silly images of wheels trying to go around faster at the rear than the front.... which is obviously extremely silly.

From what I can gather most 4WD cars can apportion all of the torque to either axle if need be...

Myself and Scoobyboy have been here before. LOL

No hard feelings for digging it up again I hope.

Looking back I feel all silly for getting wound up. LOL
