Would it be worth while ?

There used to be one in Romsey, but required an immense amount of effort to maintain and when Bill Jones no longer had the drive to keep doing it it got filled in and returned to a pub garden
Back on topic. If the drive is only to 2 wheels it's 2wd. My only question would be if the diff/spool and drive shafts are left in but the drive to this mech was removed (legal at the moment I think?) how beneficial would this be as a tuning aid?
To design a 2wd car to include this as standard would be easy, you could even incorporate a mechanical brake on it but with no way to add a drive belt.
(When I started racing there wasn't 2wd/4wd split, motors had a £10 limit, and batterys £18 limit. Things change, get on with it and enjoy the new challenges)
