Proof of RWD/AWD

Does anyone know a way we could 100% be certain of whether a run was done in RWD or AWD. Obviously some cars have only 1 option, however some have both and can be abused in such ways. For example, I could use the Last Prince which is RWD but put on the Racing mod and it's then AWD. If I was to complete a run, get the WR (or any placing) and then just claim that it was the Ultimate mod I don't see how anyone could prove me wrong.

I thought recording the loading screen before the race would be a good idea as it displays the current mod type being used in the top right but that could easily be spliced. As I see it, it would be the best way as opposed to just recording replays which don't display it. Which further asks the question, should recordings that don't include the mod displayed before the race be accepted?

Does anyone else have a fool proof idea? Thanks

You can tell pretty easily by the cars handling

Yeah that's something that is pretty obvious, however there was a run in Navaro Base A RWD (which has now been removed, credit to you mods) which was ran with an AWD Rolla ZR and it stood for a while.

I was just curious as to if there was a way that something as easy to overlook like that could be avoided :)

This leaderboard wasn't taken seriously until recently because it was just a couple of people in a friend group submitting runs. If anything like that happens again it will likely be taken care of pretty quickly.
