Hi lads just a quick or we smashed a 7 inch diff again yesterday so we had to swop it out this morning at ford fair as my focos had track time booked
Any way I'm planning on putting a supra diff in when I can get a 3.9 diff but in the mean time I'm thinking of just welding up the 7inch diff as the car dose 50% and 50% track . I no as a road car it won't be to good but wot about on the track ?

I think for the track it won't be that bad. It's especially bad in tight corners, but most tracks don't have really tight corners anyway. If I remember correctly Ford ran the RS500s with a completely fixed diff. Plus it can give some nice powerslides as well.
