thanks, Dave. Well, I have a welded diff - it requires some input to =
work - does that mean I drive like a madman? Interesting, your results =
are the opposite of what I would have expected. I assumed the welded =
diff is more of an inhibitor in tight turns where it wants the car to =
understeer, and on sweepers the wheel speed differential would have less =
of an effect.
Guess I=E2=80=99ll just have to try and find out. Don=E2=80=99t like =
the idea of any wheel spin though.

1. Do you drive like a madman? If yes, run the welded diff
2. Are you a smooth driver? If yes, the quaife rewards smoothness. =20
LOL
I have not driven a Gripper diff
I hope that helps!
