You did see the next sentence where I pretty much said that's wrong, right?!
And yes, I have compared my times before/after LSD. And just last week I drove a beautiful 300+hp open diff car and it's hilariously funny. But not in the "safe and fast" way

It's absolutely clear to me that everyone who thinks that BMWs eDiff doesn't work has never driven a semi-powerful open diff car before.

Do I understand the virtues of a mechanical diff? Sure I do! I spent good money on mine. Do I also understand that BMW's ADB gets you 95% there? Absolutely!
