I can do that easily. I also happen to live extremely close to the tail of the dragon. I will pick a wheel up enough to unload the inside wheel quite a few times. Also, the correct line through turn 3 at Road Atlanta will have your inside wheels off the ground.

And the OS Giken is the best for every situation.

The only downside to OS Gikin is the maintenance, but I agree it is the best of three diffs mentioned for full time track purposes.

The maintenance really isn't that bad though. It's just fluid changes for the majority of the time, with maybe a rebuild every couple years, depending on abuse levels.

I think most of us that are over the top with our relationship with our cars consider maintenance as part of the fun of having a specialized ride!
