A few of the track guys have reported killing theirs. Mine still works but I haven't had any co-drivers.

Hmmmm.....perhaps I am staying under the "lots" of wheelspin threshold...as in the difference of rotation from one side to the other. If I get it, I will ease off slightly...but I can keep that 10% slip for quite awhile so I know the brakes aren't kicking in.

my LSD is fine, as I can induce both wheels to spin and drift the rear at will...my car only has 6,000 miles.....and only 4 auto events on it with a single driver

Sounds like your diff is okay then. My car also only has 6000 miles but closer to 20 events and so far seems to be holding up.

I only see the wheel slip light in certain corners that lighten the rear wheel, but it was definitely easy to reproduce on race tires especially on the first run. After the tires had some temperature it didn't seem to be as frequent.
