thanks for the responses

i mainly just practice in the rain to conserve tires, in a empty parking lot in a nearby park. there are random light poles scattered across the lot. last night i started off with donuts around a light pole, then drifted around 2 poles, then 3 poles. i was at it almost non-stop for about an hour and a half. i noticed when i went back to just doing donuts around a pole, i couldn't help but just spin out, yet i managed to still be able to do maintain wide drifts around 2-3 poles.
is this a sign that the vlsd is going out, or just overheated? will it be remedied after i changed the diff. oil? and can it be rebuilt or replaced under the powertrain warranty (i've read how some can and cannot be rebuilt. cost?)?
