This is a "limited slip" setup you guys are referring to, not a "positive traction" setup! When 1 wheel slips, it slips! Not a problem for the amount of control the rolling surface has over the tires. If any appreciable torque is generated toward the other axle after one spins, the drive is going to fuse if you keep up this behavior long enough and you'll be on the side of the road with smoking final drive. This setup is designed to make it a little stiffer than "free" to turn each axle a different RPM. Betcha it works great for everything but roundy-round racing. It is NOT a "positive traction" setup.
