Any racers out there race/drive with a welded diff or a spool before? Does it work well, or is an LSD "safer"? (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/rolleyes.gif)

I agree with Rich.
A locked diff would really only be used on a big track.
definitely not an autox item.

and I believe that the correct way to weld a diff includes removing it from the box. Welding it with bar stock inserted between teeth, and then reinstalling it into a box and resetting the R/P

The benefit of a locked diff is on fast corners (60mph+).
Not slow ones.
