Rob, The "level" of track racing you are talking about is the same level of drag racing people here are at. It's amature racing, most cars are street cars as well. Therefore, a FWD is a good fit for track, as well as drag. Weight transfer can be countered by other things such as drag suspension etc. For track, it's just sometimes you have to slide around a corner and it's a little more difficult to do that in a FWD but it can still be done when the car is setup properly.

I think FWD is a good fit for most people whether they build a street/strip or a street/track car.

However, when you get to top level competition, such as F1, Nascar, as well as NHRA for drag, everything is RWD for obvious reasons.
