i have discussed this with those who do this for a living, IE: mark williams, moser, strange, and they all agree that a locker for the street is unfriendly and the new Tru-Track design is the absolute best way to go for street\strip application. i have used detroit lockers on the street in older mustangs and yes they do work but they are harsh, these cars are harsh enough, personally anything i can do to make the car more friendly driving is a definite plus. i think Undy's praise for his, supports what i have researched so far.

Agreed, I only have a DL in my road racer, street car has a Ford Trac Loc unit.....I started road racing with the DL, so that's how I learned to drive the car, I just don't know any better.....

Thanks everyone. David are you coming up for the MidAmerica Ford & Shelby Meet?

Clois, wish I could,been too long since the last time, but right now my truck is in the shop, bad tank of diesel, all 8 injectors stopped up,left me on the interstate "only" 110 miles from home, wanna see that tow bill????, or the repair bill$$$$$?????
On top of that, I broke/blew my motor at Barber Motorsports Park and the machine shop was supposed to have my "new" block bored and machined a month ago, now he tells me he'll have it done by the end of next week, so, the only thing still running is my Toyota company car, ya think they'll let me run it at Hallett?????
There should be 5 or 6 cars from here going, 2 show cars (Roush Stangs), 2 drag racers, and maybe 2 road racers, probably 10 to 15 people........
