Mix N match engine swap?

[Michael Gough]

Well for the most part, the Quattro cars usually have (had?) better 
suspension than the FWD ones since they were the "performance" versions of
the cars. The FWD cars are lighter, so with the same suspension and tires
they should be able to change directions faster and easier, but only off
throttle, if you are on throttle doing maneuvers the quattro has a distinct
advantage if you have any reasonable amount of power.
