LOL. Any turning is a problem...

Stay open-diff. It's nicer to turn, your tires will like you more, your axles will like you more, and you don't have to go through all this work just for an extra .300 of a second in straight-line speed on street tires.

Or worry about getting stranded in the drive-thru of a Taco Bell when a axle lets go.

Pushing you car through the drive-thru = PRICELESS!
