generally no, but front works well to get the car to drive out of the rut in order to get off the track. i found most of the time all wheels are usually in contact with the sand, ie a wheel is rarely in the air

I have a front lockrite too and it does feel better in some circumstances but overall I think unlocked will get you there too.
