If you know drifting methods, you can still save your car with your RWD. Thats the Point I was making.

Once your FWD car does a 180 on you and you're driving backwards, you can only rely on your front wheels to try to "pull" away from a potential wreck, where the rear wheels get most of the weight of the car.

With RWD if you do a 180, the weight of the vehicle still moves towards the rear where you can get more help in traction and use the RWD wheels to try to prevent your wreck.

I hope this makes sense. Its physics stuff... It's simply like having more brake power on your front wheels on every car during typical stop, where most of the car's weight is transferred to the front.
