good time ...but sorry standard diffs?? LOL good luck...please report back truthfully about how long they last
mine must have been a world record at 10.3 but didnt realise thought there were faster escort cossies running the 1/4 elsewhere
best of luck with the car anyway especially those diffs!

I remember the feature on this car a while ago and thinking standard diffs , but unless he is on his 20th diff it does seem to work. The amount the guy has spent on the car you would think if he was having to change diffs everyother week they would be uprated by now???

Its standard escos diffs, frontdiff havent broke since the reinforcements, but reardiff brok 5 times last year until they welded it.
Diffs brake on hard launch, not in speed aparently.
Are trying 3,9 diffs this year, will soon come some results i think

Is about strengthening the sump mounts for the frontdiff, and welding an reinforcement to the top off the frontdiff, then its fine, as said, never broke since.
Rear diff no reinforcements, but flexible rear-axels

It appears that way in the fist clip, but in the last he seems to let the revs build longer as you say, so I could be wrong
