my friend mike easton put a detroit locker in his FFR road race car. seemed
to work ok, wouldnt have been my first choice.
my neglected ITS car has a welded diff, so its always locked. great on exit,
can get a bit exciting when braking since if one rear wheel locks up, they
both do :)
the torsen feels pretty on-off to me, and i notice this in the rx8 also. the
clutch diffs are very gentle- maybe thats better in a powerful car?

James,
If you want to really have fun try driving a car with a "Detroit
Locker", the equivalent to digital on/off limited slip.. I bet half the group
doesn't even know what one is.

i switched my IRS RWD car from a clutch pack type LSD to a (regular)
torsen, and now it turns better.
