So I've autox some now with front wheel drive and have hit a track with same car and bloody heck I'm over driving and scrubbing speed off via plowing.

It's like its second nature over driving the bloody car. I know I need to stop it but. The lines I try don't seem to be generating speed like overdriving the fwd car.

What is the proper tech for fwd? Is it really slow in and roll on the throttle more than an fbody?

Please anyone with fwd exp help out the idiot behind the wheel.

Since you seem to be playing cat and mouse with providing info. Your best bet is seat time with an instructor in the right seat for a critique of your driving style and the capabilties of the "Volkswagen".

yeah the car is stock so I'm at a loss on an open track. In autocross the exp has been on tight small setup cones/tracks. So I tend to over drive those in the frnt wheel drive car. Even other front wheel drives, had a CRX that was stock and I really over drove that too in autox. In my Camaro I tended to over power large sweeping turns and on a road track tended to be careful (slow early brakes).

So in short the idiot behind the wheel needs lots of work.

I just cant get a grip on the frnt wheel drive thing. It doesn't compare to what you get used to to. Going from stable with power to a stock front wheel drive platform kinda makes you want to get out the paddle to help along upstream.
