    Default FF conversions

    When converting from FF to FC, is it mainly just adding wings front and rear?

    For many chassis, yes, it is just a case of changing engines and adding wings... and changing springs,etc.

    Talent usually ends up in front, but fun goes from the front of the grid all the way to the back.

    Bobby,
    With the current used car market values, in 95% of cases, selling the FF and buying a FC car be a much smarter move than converting a FF to FC. Some people are going the other way, and there are ways to make that a feasible option. The cost of wheels is probably the biggest factor after the engine.
