There are some durability and braking reasons particularly on larger tires that LWB makes more sense but as a fun car on skinny tire, SWB isn’t a bad thing!

Mine moves around quite a lot when flogging it on the track but on Avon CR6ZZ 185/70 it has enough grip. With a properly set up suspension and KAAZ LSD, it is extremely predictable. Mine has Alfa brakes up front and M calipers on the back. …quite adequate
