On a road course over curbing it happens all the time. On the street, unlikely but still have experienced it on really tight twisties, usually slow speed right turns as the inside pavement "falls away" from the tire. It's not so much the tire lifting, it's more like the pavement falls away in a dip. Those that have run Tail of the Dragon or the North GA mountains know exactly what I am talking about. Makes me want to go back.

Aside from more frequent changes, there are few drawbacks to daily driving the OSG 1.5 way LSD...no noise or overly obnoxious inside tire grab during slow speed manuevers. The older LSD's of yesteryear were intolerable for daily street use. Not anymore.

But if you don't see yourself doing track days or really pushing the car hard, the Quaife is going to be an improvement over stock for sure, and it's OEM fluid change intervals are inviting.

Glad we all have choices.
