Default 2 wheel steer only as a 2.2

what if you have 4ws setup but have the rear locked but can be unlocked through radio, so if i did flip my car and it landed to where the backside of the car is pointed towards a gate, could i lock the front and activate the rear and continue in reverse with rear steer but the front is locked, since i am only steering with two wheels at any time is this legal or do the steering wheels have to be the same and can't change

Nope, only the front wheels can steer.

No, that would be 4 wheel steering.

Not exactly. You can run rear steer as long as the front does not turn also.

2.3.4 - Vehicles are limited to 2-wheel steering only

I would think that most comp organizer's would make you physically lock out the rear stear just to be sure it's not used?

If a judge saw the rear wheels move in anyway even on accident they would probably have to give you a 50 on the spot....
