When i'm in my beetle hell it's feels like a cart

only rain sucks (but that is with most RWD)
And yes they race only other beetles
with same engines etc
it makes beetle racing cheap&fun
there a lot of differences between beetles
cant compare model 38 to a 1303 gt bug
lower and stiffer the suspension and add wider tires
makes a big difference
I never saw i mini trying to outcorner me
Rear wheel drive basicly makes shorter corners
add weight in the back it's like having a hammer in the han
try swing it with the hammerhead in the hand than swing it with the steel.
It's needs a bit steermanship offcourse
In other words a FWD car is easier to learn
