Torsen T2R failure? rear suspension problem?

[Duane Black]

I think my Torsen T2r is out. I've been running at vir and i thought it was tires... like pulling off t1 under heacy lateral load the rpms would suddenly jump. it did it every so often. at roebling and i thought it was a cold michelin s9m thing.

this last session at vir i came off the track thinking i had a flat tire. its ass was everywhere under cornering and there's a distinct whine under throttle.

sound like the t2r took a shiznit?


it felt like this guy describes...

There is no race team that I'm aware of that runs anything other than a Torsen on a road course.

Let's face it Duane, you've never met a curb you didn't like. You drive hard and fast. It's a testament to your parts and/or preparation that the Hertz Special is still going strong. I have the TruTrac, and even I say not to go away from the Torsen. It is the proven commodity.

Lockers..

are you recomending a locker? or is that someone's name,?
lockers were sort of popular back in the 70s but because of their characteristics most road racers went back to a clutch plate limited slip, I still remember guys at the drags lining up their car 3 times, backing it up then doing a couple of chirpies to make sure their Detroit Lockers were engaged before they launched.
