The GTUs rear isnt that good for drag. It has a viscous LSD, that requires a wheel speed differential before it starts to lock. Basically, youre goign to have to spin one wheel faster than the other to get the LSD to start doing its job. A clutch type, on the other hand, is locked until there is enough differential torque to allow the wheels to turn at different speeds.

One of my friends has a GTUs rear with the viscous LSD, and we both agree that its not well suited to drag.

"No, i dont drag race, i just do it to compare against other cars on the road" I'd rather take a corner than drive in a strait line...
