Good stuff, NSXDreamer2. So you can spin your rear tires, too... interesting. Mine does it on brand new Avon type R tires, FWIW.

I apply throttle gradually, but I refuse to wait for the track out point to be WOT. Something is wrong if I have to do that. I may consider wider rear tires. Unfortunately, I just bought 2 sets of stock size for the track.

I have not seen test reports of NSXes or Porsches and haven't seen the rear ends out. Maybe this is common to our cars and I'm the one who doesn't know it. That is what and why I'm asking.

The purpose of the LSD isn't to *create* understeer - it is to keep the inside tire from spinning which is what you get in an open diff. LSD is to get 2 tires to power your forward instead of one and a by-product of this is understeer. My diff is not spinning the inside tire only... both spin, hence the oversteer.

Thanks for the input.
