    different gears

    Found it: "When torque imbalance reaches the bias ratio, the internal gearing allows differential to occur. For example, if 450 ft-lbs of torque is applied to the ring gear, a 3.5:1 bias ratio Torsen T2R will distribute 350 ft-lbs to the inside wheel and 100 ft-lbs to the outside wheel while...

    different gears

    Does anybody know the Torque Bias Ratio of the stock diff? I take it 5:1 means one wheel will spin a bunch and 2:1 the 'locking' will happen sooner.

    Yes it was a good time. Some of the wildest weather I have driven through to get home. Sun, torrential rain, & snow!

    Help from Marauder fans for next AutoX/Trackday

    The front passenger side tire buffed away the paint on the bottom of the fender, so I don't recommend these wheels for anyone with a lowered car. The backs were fine. Massive pics in my gallery.

    2000 Cobra R wheels 18 X 9.5 & 20mm offset I am hoping there aren't any bumps at tomorrow's AutoX at an airfield. The offset is really obnoxious.

    Smokie your rule of thumb works for my first two runs, +~21mph Then on run three its +22.9mph with the brake torque & stock wheels Run 10 was +25.81mph with race gas and light wheels. Run 12 +23.44mph this is ignoring the 107mph slip, it appears my car has a hell of a second wind in third gear.

    The only thing I can think of is that the car in the next lane blew some debris across my timing lights. He has a trap of 108, and if you look at my 1/8mile traps, he was going 6mph faster. How could I all of the sudden make up that deficit after half track? It doesn't make sense.

    I may show up, still undecided. I have some running around to do before a big AutoX Sunday, so I'll see, but having a few Marauders there would be cool. Results: I am Car 165 Run 3 - loose shocks, hot motor, brake torque off the light. Run 8 - my small (250mm wide) BBS wheels on the back...

    Auto X video

    Yes I think I embrassed some people into giving their best performance, terrified of being beaten by a 4500lb barge is good motivation. I beat one miata, not sure if it was super or turbo. I will post a couple more videos when I can.
