Lsd?

i'm havin trouble getting traction off the starts in races...so would LSD be the best way to fix that? an LSD is only about 100 bucks, so its not going to burn a huge hole in the pocket, but is that something that you all reccomend highly? and will it really help all that much?

LSD would help, you should look into better tires though.

The only LSD you will get for $100 is a zexal torsen from the slp site. yes they do help get traction with the right tires.

I had Yokohamas on my other car and let me tell ya, HUGE difference when taking corners, then I wore those out and I have Falkens on now, not as good as the Yokohamas but they are up there in grip. The ones I had where Yokohama AVS sports and Falken Ziex ZE-502

Yokohama

I agree.

I have used both Falkens and have Yokohamas now, this is on a LS1 though.
The Falkens would spin on the 2-3 shift.

The Yokohama AVS ES 100s don't spin on the 2-3 shift.
