Spyder Rear wheel spin
Sorry if my question is pure ignorance on my part please accept my apologies.
Been testing my Spyder out on the same high torque low speed high gradient acute corners mountain pass several times, & found during mid corners one of the rear wheel free spins in air, quite consistently & repeatedly in several particular corner turns. Rev around 4k in 2nd or 3rd. Relieved throttle slightly whenever this happened though I did not feel loosing of any grip (cup 2s). Nvr had this experience in previous base 718 without TV or LSD, or Audi TT Quattro in this pass.
Roundabout high speed drift does not have this issue. Not had a chance to track it yet. As never driven a car with mechanical LSD previously, can anyone kindly enlighten me if this is just mechanical LSD at work?
