Faster by removing 4WD.

I tried removing the drive shaft, front axle, and dogbones to see for myself what kind of difference it would make in speed and turning performance.

I already have the orange motor and gearset installed.

Wow! Not only is it way faster, but slightly lighter to boot.
Turning radius is way tighter.

It still goes on carpet just fine too!
