No horse in this race honestly, but just to be consistent:

His point was that it's too much power for RWD to put to the ground. You then said the creator of the Miata felt vehicle control was tantamount as well, but then built a 150-something hp RWD car.

You lent credence to his point with your example. That's all I meant. I'm sure you realized. RWD is exceptional for a drivers car, but it does have limits in regards to driveability and control when it comes to high hp/tq figures. Unless I seriously misread something, no one was implying that RWD isn't good for driving and control.

Happy Christmas and holiday season everyone!
