The
differential window allows you to choose a gear ratio from a scrolling
listbox. If the ratio you want to test is not listed, simply type it in to
the field. In this model, both tires will receive equal torque. This most
closely simulates a stiff clutch limited-slip/posi/sure-grip or spool unit,
but will work with an open differential if traction is not a problem.
Drive type
will have a significant effect on traction. The all wheel drive model assumes
all driving wheels share the same tire diameter and differential ratio.
The polar moments
of inertia section allows you to test the effects of lightened wheels,
driveshafts, and engine parts on acceleration.
