In automotive design, an FR, or front-engine, rear-wheel-drive layout is one where the engine is located at the front of the vehicle and driven wheels are located at the rear. This was the traditional automobile layout for most of the 20th century. Modern designs commonly use the front-engine, front-wheel-drive layout (FF).
The first FR car was an 1895 Panhard model, so this layout was known as the "Système Panhard" in the early years. The layout has the advantage of minimizing mechanical complexity, as it allowed the transmission to be placed in-line with the engine output shaft, spreading weight under the vehicle. In comparison, a vehicle with the engine over the driven wheels eliminates the need for the drive shaft (replacing this with the transaxle of lighter combined weight), but has the disadvantage of concentrating all the weight in one location.
In order to reduce the relative weight of the drive shaft, the transmission was normally split into two parts, the gearbox and the final drive. The gearbox was normally produced with its highest gear being 1:1, which offers some mechanical advantages. The final drive, in the rear axle, would then reduce this to the most appropriate speed for the wheels. As power is the product of torque and angular velocity, spinning the shaft faster for any given power reduces the torque and allows a lighter shaft construction.
Blood is blood
And youth will never forget the sacrifice
To the point of making them immortal
Eye per eye, a revenge for their lives
My guitar sings blue chords
For those who still remain
Fighting death in a chess game
[Chorus:]
Feel our fear as our hearts
are getting out from our mouths
Blinded and covered my eyes are
My breathing gets loud in the dark
Stay high though fear takes the lead
Pray to the Lord and hold up your heads
'Cause though life won't reach tomorrow
They will come: the offspring of the undead
First days of May
The first carnage
It won't end the fight
Third day of May
A portrait in which
dead will survive
