Rear wheel drive, no track prep (because it's not a track). In the real world on a "street" it just is not that fast without some work (and these guys just belt in and turn on launch control - and Dodge LC software is just shit - I hate to say it). Where I think the RE should hold its head up is look at comparative price: Jesus christ what a deal, it's at least competitive with cars three times is price - maybe four if you count the Dodge in at 55K brand new from Koons. And it's getting beat on by no AWD and shitty launch software.
