Need Limited slip diff, I WANT MORE TRACTION Options

[Joe Ricard]

Ok, so now that we have stepped up the game and have found more lateral cornering G's I am in lifting the inside rear tire again.

No rear sway (of course)
High rebound rear shocks 200 lb rear coil over.

high rebound koni race shock and 21mm torsion bars in front with 22 Weltmiester bar. set as much as I can before the car pushes.

So looking for advise on LSD what's available and what's the difference of each in an autocross application.

I hate a thread where everyone agrees....Iff'n I was smarter, I come up with something radical. Lemmesee.
I argee with Grant on the TB diff.
I agree with Josh on the FWD cars & chassis stiffening.
I agree with Chris on the parts buying.
I agree with everything Joe says cept when he says he is fast.`

Ah ha.....I don't argee with Chris H on a clutch pack LSD for AX, but if you must have one: Guard Transmission 888 89 GEARS
Thank God, some contraversy.(IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

It's not for my car, it's for my dad's car ( that andrew drives ). We've having a hard time keeping traction even with all 4 wheels planted firmly on the ground with R250 compound 9 inch wide goodyear eagles.

We're going to need it at parade this year.

Anyways it's not me you're disagreeing with, it's my dad. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Is there a rule against that?

Greg Fordahl recommend a TB diff to me and he uses one.
Should you guys beat him with a clutch pack type at Parade, I may listen to your dad. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

No rule against it, but I think he knows a bit about what he's talking about. People who enlist his services historically end up winning nearly every single race in their particular series.

We shall see how the parade pans out. We're going to be there for TTOD. I don't know this Greg Fordahl, but I have met Mr. Tom Provasi, and with the old hundred horse 2.0L in the blue car we took TTOD away from him at marina a couple times. Now we've got a whole lot more power, we've tweaked the car a bit, and with this limited slip I'm hoping luck goes our way.

The parade is an interesting change in format for us though because it looks like we won't get very many runs, and they will be spaced way apart. I don't know whether this will work to our advantage or disadvantage, but I do know one thing:

We're gonna have a whole lot of fun finding out in the hot san diego sun. That's what all this is about anyways, nobody's getting any money out of it or anything. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/cool.gif)
( except maybe the wise person that sponsors our car )

Ihave my doubts about the hamilton being a parade winning car after running against it recently. With poor running car and very tired dot tires my car has been within two seconds. With race rubber and carb issues worked out I think my very basic car with a good driver could equal the hamilton car on a fast course.

A fast 3.6 car will be my pick at parade based on seeing the "improved" hamilton car run.

It would be interesting to see how the hamilton car would do on dot rubber. Typically its the only car running race slicks at our local pca events.

Better still, get some slicks on your car ..... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)
