On the same track, I find high speed sweeper corner speed is much better with the Quaiffe as the welded diff requires modulating the throttle to control the forced oversteer, where the quaife car is flat out.  Last turn at Thompson, the #80 was 11mph faster exiting the corner with the same driver.   However, on the hairpin, the welded diff was a much better performer where the quaife required a VERY smooth line and was modulating wheel spin where the welded diff just rotated the car and shot out of a turn.   I’ve developed a simple questionnaire to help.  Lap times were the same on both cars.

I raced both this weekend at RA, and frankly don't notice any difference except in the pits or pushing the car. Bear in mind that neither us, nor our cars have ever been described as super-fast. I do notice the difference when racing my Bugeye with an open diff, as it lifts the inside rear and loses drive.
