Limited Slip?

so i have never owned a car with limited slip untill now... does it make a big difference in a race from a dig, or from a roll for that matter? i beat other cobalts from a dig and roll(i dont walk them though), but im not sure if its because of the limited slip or not... all i have is the airbox mod. thanks for any help!

The benefits of LSD abound in tight turns and curves but effects on drag and roll racing should be limited. There are many other variables that can affect 1 cobalt beating another including extra passengers, even the amount og gas in the car. These cars seem to be very reactive to weight changes.

From a dig LSD is very important so both tire get traction and not just one. When ever i try to take off fast only one of my tires spins while the other just goes along for the ride. I get my LSD soon!!! WOOT

Good and bad with Limited Slip. In the winter you tend to take off sideways as one wheel spins and the other digs. Out on the track they are the bomb though.
