It should be lots of fun.

While that torque number is abismal imo, I'm sure there will be plenty of after market support to alleviate most peoples concers and skinny tires just means swapping to an aftermarket setup, which would probably happen anyway for a lot of folks wanting to track with it. Most of the "problems" on this car can be fixed. FWD, not so much... I am hoping this helps to bring back the entry level sports car.

Uh, it's RWD guys. Where are you seeing it stated that it's FWD?

To clarify, I was saying driving the RWD FT86 would be much more fun than a similarly powered FWD car of the same weight.

 Anything RWD is funner (more fun) to drive than FWD.
