Auto-x on slipping posi Last week while at the track my auburn posi started to fail. I was doing peg-legged burn outs before my runs. My friend who drives a lancer wants me to go auto-xing with him this weekend, and I have to show to put him in his place. 
Can i still auto-x with a slipping posi? I think it only happens when it is hot. Will I damage the rearend anymore.
A 12 bolt is on its way for christmas, so I am not too concered about the rearend but want to be able to drive home.

Shouldn't be a problem Josh, do you have the Auburn or the Torsen ?
Where are you guys going AX'ing ?
BTW, I plan on putting an 8.8 in mine this winter - hope to be at the track abusing it in the spring.

I'll post up more details if you are intrested.
Wow, that's quite a haul for me. What date ?
As far as the rear goes, I don't think you will hurt it further AX'ing, it's probably only slipping is all. Probably an oil change would fix it.

I autox twice this year on a BAD Auburn posi. It just understeers like a ****. Going to a 2000 WS6 Torsen rear made a BIG difference over the bad POS Auburn unit. I just wish I had the T2R so I could put the power down even better in the turns.
