Good stuff. I'm getting new rubber at the end of this month and have the same on my agenda - donuts and drifts. I need someone to shoot vid.

When you do donuts, isn't it best to shift into 2nd gear? Cause you'll be less likely to hit the rev limiter if you floor it?

Over rev (kinda have to)
Over heat (if you don't watch it)

LSD (Limited Slip Differential?) wear? How does that get affected by the donuts? The slip light comes on and then just stops functioning when you do donuts (and have turned VDC off). Could you explain what the risk is to LSD?

LSD has "wear plates" just like a clutch.

I thought our LSD was Viscous and thus no "wear plates" ??
