I'll support this statement. I have a 4.10 differential and you can accelerate while drifting. It could be me, but it rarely happens. 3rd gear clutch kick and minimal angle was the trick for me.

I absolutely love it.
Granted, it's not scca/fia approved or anything but it does it's job of holding me in place VERY well.
I"ve also done the "sturdy" test. Meaning i had my fat *** brother sit in the thing and TRY to break/crack it. nothing. So if it's good enough for him, my 140lbs should be fine in it. Give it a go. I dont think you'll be displeased.
Also, fellas.....
If you CAN get ahold of a 4.30 or 4.10 rear end and dont mind the higher cruising rpms effecting your mileage, get one. The 3.90 gets the job done but it feels like more of a fight to keep things going. I could actually SPEED UP while drifting with my TII gearing.
It's late, i'm tired, i'm aware i'm post-whoring. If i can't hang out after work, i'm usually on here browsing and/or trying to help.
