It...is....called.......THE.....DIFFERENTIAL! Are you sure that wasn't Tom narrating? I think this was William Shatners dad narrating....with those pauses in his speaking and inflections.....or his voice coach. |

Do you have a link for the Audi Torsen diff video? It's a fully mechanical design that applies torque to the wheel that ISN'T slipping. Wild idea but I've never felt more secure than while driving a quattro. Ironically, it was designed by an american and is used in many applications: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Torsen_differential Including lego: http://individual.utoronto.ca/stehlik/torsen.html |

Isn't that the principle that the Detroit TrueTrac uses? |
