AWD Wheelie? really? unless its something that adjusts according to what wheels need power and which that dont. I really doubt AWD wheelies are possible..

forward to :23 seconds (front wheels off ground)
and AWD is much better at putting down the power more evenly than rwd

Which wheels are powered wheels doesn't really have much to do with popping wheelies. Wheelies are created by weight transfer and suspension tuning.

Even bad wheel hop in FWD is a kind of weak wheelie. It's just seriously unimpressive and cannot be sustained.

[QUOTE=!LittleDragon;7132609]GMC Typhoon AWD pulling off a wheelie.


That Typhoon is no longer AWD. You need matching front and rear tire sizes for AWD drag racing. That truck had Drag Radials on the rear and skinny's on the front.

Berz out.
