Yes mate all weekend at the Fordsport thing
I have done about 20 miles with it tonight and it feels a bit different but not a lot! I'm guessing until i really give it some out of a corner i'm not going to notice the difference and i am expecting it to want to swop ends Doubt i'll notice much difference on a strip though will i?

SPADGE,

until it wants to step out there will be no drivability differance , when it does , keep the foot in and it will go where you point it

as for the strip - only time will tell ivenever done timed strip work with either type of diff - your the guinea pig m8
