FF = front engine, front wheel drive FR = front engine, rear

tfw i have never driven an MR car
I have high expectations.

OP, there are multiple MR layouts, RMR where the engine is behind the driver, and FMR where it is in front of the driver. I prefer RMR because I use a forklift and golf cart a lot, so the handling characteristics are roughly the same between the two, which is nice, but it's really just preference as long as it's a true mid engine.

Only a problem if you're at 9/10 of the car's grip limit or higher

You have my attention, please explain more

Basically, cars for people who don't have kids, jobs, friends, or need a car for any practical purpose..

Only typical millennial types drive these things. They're basically the hipsters of the car world.

Oh no you didn't...

>>16970313
Why is there no MF drivetrain? Seems like it would be a pretty sweet deal.

>>16971567
It would have awful driving dynamics. Understeer up the ass. Also the main advantage of FF is economy. Engine in the rear and front drive would be expensive. It would be cheaper to just make it MR

>>16971567
Because taking weight of the wheels that provide both power and steering will fuck up the handling.
Weight will always go to the rear under acceleration, so if you move the engine back the rear will get loaded even more, leaving the front to struggle for any traction.

>>16971567
It would be to cars what Skrillex is to music.

>>16970313
MR=Massive Regret

>>16971567
convertable cars running on garbage can lids for wheels would have better handling than that.

MR, Rotary, etc. cars that were discontinued because they are based on failed technologies with stupid cult followings are for cucks.

They are to /o/ what furries are to /b/

I like Toyota

But their non-turbo cars are trash compared to Honda or the Miata (double wishbone> Macpherson struts)

>>16972310
911's have macphersons and multi links. Guess they're all shit too.

>>16972325
Porsche's are track cars

Bump steer and dynamic camber gain aren't issues on baby smooth tracks
99% of driving isn't done on the burgerking

>>16972325
They are

>>16971764
so...great?

>>16972337
Nurburgring is not a baby smooth track. It's got loads of bumps. And it's not like they're live axle or something. It's not a big deal.

>he doesn't want a car that is superior on the touge

enjoy bump steering into a guardrail

>>16972382
That's hilarious because the Toyota MR-S has multi-link and Macpherson suspension. Guess what? It fucking owns on the touge.

>>16972401
TPS has a front subframe replacement kit for the MR-S to convert to double A arm

>he didn't even mention the ridiculous bump steer spin
You must Really like guardrails

>>16970313
"FR" stands for For Real

because its the only layout anyone wants to drive irl

"MR" stands for snap oversteer and fucking die

Mr-s doesn't have bump steer issues, that was the sw20

>>16970313
traverse MR a shit
longitudinal RR a best

>>16970472
dab the brake mid corner for maximum respect

>>16974195
All Macpherson strut suspension vehicles experience bump steer
it's in their design

>>16971996
Formula 1 uses MR still

>>16974226
Yeah but it's pretty minor in the mr2 spyder unless you alter the suspension geometry

>>16971996
9/10 normi agree
traverse FF is the best

Wow, you're not only a bus rider, but a short bus rider.

>>16974226
all double wishbone suspension has bump steer as well
even if everything is perfectly aligned, it'll come back as soon as you turn the wheels
