    It's a great lesson in static vs sliding friction coefficients. The way to win is to let the other guy pull you until he starts to spin. His friction coefficient goes to hell. Then you start pulling without spinning your tires. Easy win every time. It has close to nothing to do with the vehicles involved.

    You beat me to it.

    HP/Torque is one variable, but kinetic friction between tires and track is another. Good traction control system can be an another significant factor as well.

    I just wish I could get a 4 cylinder Tdi in a AWD car/small SUV from VW or Audi. Dream car would be the resurrection of the cab forward Vanagon Camper in AWD with locking difs with a Tdi.
