RE: Score one for Quattro

And a quattro without limited slip or locked diffs is technically one wheel 
drive. But I think that the drag of the other wheels trying to turn still 
gives some torque even when 3 dont have any traction.

They do.  A 2wd car without a limited slip diff has effectively one wheel 
drive.
