It is a device in the drivetrain that helps even out the power distribution to the drive wheels. It is especially beneficial on corners. Ever notice, coming out of a corner at full throttle and get all that wheelspin? The wheelspin is from the inside tire lifting. With LSD, you won't get that. It will apply more power to the outside tire that has more grip. Even at hard launches, it helps because it will reduce the wheelspin. Only problem with LSD is that it has clutch disc that does all this and they need to be rebuilt but they are worth it.
Am I correct, guys?
