Doesn't look crazy to me. This is with the OS Giken diff.

Besides the one oops (which you didn't get into trouble on), it looked like some good driving

It's about 70%. That's all. My tires were RE11's which are OK but will overheat and get greasy if you don't watch it. Stock motor with Fast Intentions exhaust, non- resonated. I am no Youtuber, The wind noise sucks.

Here is a video from 2018. SSR's and Aragosta suspension was on the car with the OS Giken diff. No diff cooler. I puked diff fluid out on this run. I never drive great on the way down. I am always waking up. The return trip is where I like to get after it a bit. I am sure Rusty has a video following behind me in 2018 also. The rain slowed us down the later part of the week.

Save yourself the headache and avoid the Quaife at all costs. As soon as you unload a rear tire, the diff will open defeating the whole purpose of having a limited slip.
