Prop shaft inside the car would be inconvenient. No mention of it having your leg off

Brilliant vid. Didn't realise about the lowering of the driveshaft on the crown wheel. Clever stuff!

with an open diff the power goes through path of least resistance, eg if one wheel starts to slip all the power would go through that wheel, for maximum grip you want the power to be going to the wheel with the most grip, a lsd uses either a clutch type system or gears to bias the torque and power to the wheel with the most grip
