And I have to agree, the diff is awesome and unless you drive something else through the same corner you just don't realise how much the diff does as it's totally imperceptible.
Interesting that you describe it as imperceptible - I would call it the exact opposite!
when it wakes up you sure as hell know about it IME
By imperceptible I meant there's no sudden change in the car's behaviour; it just corners, and grips, and grips…
Coming from a whole legion or modified front wheel drive cars I'm used to approaching a corner wondering if the thing will understeer, spin an inside wheel, torque steer or whatever.
The VAQ just grips and slingshots you round…
That's imperceptible to me, it could be one wheel drive, two wheel drive, front, rear, four wheel drive - there are no obvious give-aways as to what it is - witchcraft!!!
