The School of Drift : Rear Diff Locked vs Open!

[SuhaibKiani]

As a student offroad driving here is what little I have seen and observed over the years when it comes to open vs locked rear diffs in terms of car control. The locked rear works in a similar way to an LSD and most observations may be applicable to LSDs as well. ! Incidently all videos are FJ40s running V8s and to be fair, the open diffs videos are mainly from the early days..... Comments welcome!

When you are going sideways at 160kmph, its something significant by all [international] standards - Nadir Magsi (at Redbull Jhal Magsi Desert Challenge 2011)

Boss,,, this was probably my quote

By the way,,, why would you like to drift on purpose during rally,,, its never the fastest way around

He did say it in an interview. Whether one likes it or not, if not by choice then by default, you end up drifting (not sure how appropriately that describes it but your going sideways basically and controlling momentum by counter-steer) through some turns in Cholistan (the slide and glide 2nd stage) and a whole lot of the time in Jhal Magsi. The main view here is that an LSD or a locked rear gives you much better control and predictability over an open diff and gives you that confidence to maintain car control by throttle. More so with the dramatic weight transfer on a solid axle rear than an IRS perhaps. Small sequence of NM (which I have on file from a video capture) to highlight the point. I am pretty certain, that with an open rear, even ustad jee at 170kmph here here would have sweaty palms coming out of this one...

Nahin, itnaa important national maslaa bhee nahin hai ab yeh
But seriously all the videos are not mine and god knows where the master files to my videos are...
But please do get a proxy software (like Spotflux) or something so you guys can at least watch something of value.... losers

Nevertheless, Qasim Bhai ab apney Shairon ko kahein ke youtube khol dein, bohat ho gaya mazaaq kyon ke individual videos bhee block kiyay jaa saktey hain. We want our popcorn back!

@SK, remove the "like" button from pakwheels and you will notice the change in comment counts on each thread :).

Although drifting is never been TU's ball game but still I liked the locked-LS1. FJ going green on beautiful terrain!
