Welded diff? Options

[Terrance]

Any racers out there race/drive with a welded diff or a spool before? Does it work well, or is an LSD "safer"? (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/rolleyes.gif)

dang....
out of the box requires resetting the R/P

(part of the value of having it in the box was saving the money of resetting the R/P)

It took me about 5-10 track days to learn how to drive it.
I'm a slow learner, but it definitely is not something that you would initially like the first time you drive it.

The entire driving style is different.
and the car set up/tuning is different also.

reminds me a lot of driving a tail happy (911 like) car.
you turn the corner by throwing the car sideways and having the rear rotate. Then -sorta like a 911- you pull the car out of a slide by standing on the gas.

its like an exagerated 911.
kinda dukes of hazard fun though

and after I finally learned how to drive it, my lap times at my favorite track were the quickest I had ever driven even though I had the same exact set of old used tires on it.

I think that the reason I was faster was because my braking points had all gotten 20feet deeper, and not because I really needed the traction of both wheels accelerating!

Its that last 1-2 car lengths entering a corner where I can catch the competition.
