Default 2wd vs 4wd - which is better?

Hi all,

Just a quick question, for speed runs would it be better to run 2wd or 4wd, I can see that the 4wd system would have more drivetrain loss, however 2wd would have 50% of the grip as only 2 wheels would be powered.

Just wondering which people find to be best, I am guessing a 2wd setup for speed runs eg rwd only due to the fact that the engine can spin up easier and there is less driveline loss overall.
