[QUOTE="rick021808, post: 15148265, member: 176986"] Well with the different gear ratio in the rear is how I think they get up to 70% in the rear. When the clutches lock up in the rear diff, the rear tires will spin faster than the front and it will push the rear of the car more. With other awds like a Subaru, the center diff has slippage and can send power to the front or rear. I think with the Focus RS, it is like a fwd but there is fixed power sent to the rear diff and the 2 clutches on the rear diff output is where the slippage is. I wish this car had an actual center diff that can send more power to the rear but I think the way the rear diff is designed, it will still perform very well. [/QUOTE]
