The car will be very hesitant to change directions, noticably increasing understeer and making navigating at slow speeds very difficult. If it's for a pure drift car or something like that then go ahead, but if it'll see ANY street use then don't get an LSD instead.

It would be very stupid and dangerous to do this to a street car...

this car will never be driven on the road. only at the track and the drift events. i have an lsd in it right now that i put in but i have the peg ;eg rear end just sittin their and wanted to know if anyone has done it.

For a pure track car it'll be ok, but still not ideal, for road racing a proper LSD is better. For drag racing or drift I suppse there's probably not really a downside, other than when trying to drive around in the pits, load the car up onto the trailer and so on. I've had to push around a race car with a welded diff (we blew up the LSD, it was a backup) and it's not fun, it really doesn't want to turn.
