My car has some sort of Limited Slip device due to the sometimes severe axel tramp or wheel hop that occurs when trying to launch the car and even on 1-2 shifts sometimes. My reasoning is that a limited slip device limits one wheel from spinning faster than the other one. Cars without a limited slip device allow one wheel spin and the other to hook up which reduces acceleration and traction and the wheel hop condition shouldn't exist. I've never experienced this one-wheel hookup with my car. Either they both spin or they both hookup which is precisely what happens with POSI traction.

Bruce, it is now a standard thing I believe.
