Apparently there's an LSD fitted to the GP, but what kind is it ?
I have started to doubt the quality of the fitted LSD since it has not made any significant impression on my visits to the race tracks so far.
Still traction problem when turning.

(No electronic aid switched on when on the race track)

well it certainly is not a quaife diff. They only make the ATB type for the MINI, far superior over the LSD type. I believe the RS used the Quaife ATB and it was one of their main selling points.

Cheers,

but LSD, and not ATB.

There is a big difference.

Cheers,
