If I didn't make it clear, the above quote is about RWD, not FWD. I am fully
aware that rearward weight transfer on a FWD is bad, but good on RWD--which
is the reason I asked why he was advising the use of suspension setups that
would seem to encourage the opposite of what either driveline configuration
would need for optimal traction. I then basically answered my own question
by speculating that he was talking about REBOUND damping, not compression.
Sorry if I failed to make myself clear in my initial post, especially if it
made me seem like a dumbass, which I am fairly certain I am not.
