Puts power to the ground more efficiently by reducing wheel spin by doing 50/50 power into the rear wheels instead of 100% into the lower resistant tire. When both tires spin equally, each tire only needs half as much traction to push the car forward where as if you have a peg leg (non lsd) then 1 tire takes on the job of pushing the car 100%. For even aggressive street driving, you are able to power through and push out of corners sooner as you have more traction. For tracking, its a must.
Oh yeah, I drilled wholes in my rear trim plastic pieces so I could adjust my damper on my coilovers more easily today. I will still be cleaning them up a little bit more but I figured it would be easier this way for Autox so between runs I can hop out, adjust, and hop back in and run again
