We're pulling the rear end to take out the locker and install an open differential...in a vehicle like this, the locker doesn't like the asphalt. Shows up pretty bad during hard acceleration or deceleration :-?
I didn't have any luck on the V100 wheels, but I would recommend modified HEMMT wheels and wheel adapters. Unlike the adapters readily available, I machined mine with a hub and machined the inside out on the HEMMT wheels so the centers will run concentric with the wheels. As Rory has said, the...

I've done a lot more extreme drifting than was on the video. If I had known they were filming when I came on the asphalt, I would have really laid it out :twisted:
