wow that's crazy. am i correct in understanding that this is set up to be more like a rwd car, ie. based on the amount of torque it sends back to the rear wheels and the elsd?

no wonder why it does those powerslides in the videos we've seen so far...

as for the torque vectoring being brake-based, will that mean under race conditions it could eat up pads and rotors quicker or unevenly?
