I'm considering getting myself an xDrive car and I want to better understand the torque application parameters.

So I read about a 40% baseline. Is this indicating that just under normal driving conditions with no wheel slip at all that there's 40% being applied to the front?

Maybe put it another way, lets say the road is wet, and you're stopped. You turn off DTC, crank the wheel the left and gun it, what will it do? Is there not yet any drive power going to the front so the rear tires will spin and the car and flip around. Or is there already power being applied to the front and the car will just turn and accelerate?

I hope this question makes sense.
