    You should be, you're going to have a really fast car.

    BTW, that run was from a 25mph roll in second gear, and I let off around 150.

    You can see that even though I have a 2.79 diff now, second gear is still pretty much useless at .7 bar or higher.

    Hmm, maybe I'll sell that open 2.93 I have instead of having it built and turned into a LSD. I just didn't want ot have to spend that much money on a diff, but looks like I might have to go with a 2.79 for the hopes of any traction.

    Yea, you will probably get traction in third if you go to a 2.79, but I'm not so sure about a 2.93.

    I'm looking forward to having no traction.
