    Is anybody using a Torsen in their ITS car? My brother-in-law just picked one up for the car we are building.

    The torsen works great on most tracks. If you run slow speed exit corners it will spin the inside tire more than the clutch type units. Play with rebound settings on the rear shocks if you do get wheel spin. Good luck and welcome to ITS.

    Since it's a torque-proportioning unit, rather than a locking type, you need some traction on each wheel before it provides traction on the other wheel. If you are a curb-hopper and get a rear wheel airborne, that can be a problem. Never been an issue with me. I love it.
