Yep - it's all about the tires. RWD makes you a little more likely to lose the back end - but that is fun as long as you are careful. FWD and AWD don't help you stop, and they don't help you around corners either. Stopping and cornering (weight shifting over drive wheels aside) are accomplished through tires.
