When was the last time you went round a corner fast enough to lift up a rear wheel AND with the wheel in the air long enough for traction to be affected AND have your traction control turned off, all at the same time?

That wavy thingamajig was designed for 20 year old VW's with no traction control, hence why the real designers of it (i.e Quaife) ditched the idea

Would you not rather have a performance function that works 95% of the time (i.e more torque transfer/bias), than a semi-obsolete function that not only works only 5% of the time (i.e applying load to an airborne wheel), but is also a function that your car already has?

And if you do like driving with your traction control off, then you would be better off with a Plate/Clutch type LSD
