A Thorsen differential does not "Lock up" it diverts power to the wheel
with the most grip. in low hp cars it seems to work better then high hp.
I was still smoken one Hoosier coming off of tight turns but... I am running
350+hp in a 2600lb car. With the locker I just have to make sure I am pointed
the
way I want to go before I "pull the trigger".
