    Drivetribe really taking off. It's not Top Gear or Grand Tour, but it doesn't need to be, it's roots are certainly there but their future is most definitely it's own. Great job Richard and Izzy, looking forward to more of, well, everything.

  • @ralphlamao
    @ralphlamao 3 часа назад +1

    The C.DIFF toggle does not send power forward or back; a common misconception! What it does do is change how hard the center differential locks the front and rear axels together.
    Much how the inside and outside wheels rotate at different speeds in a turn, so do the front and rear axels in a turn as well. Locking them together would make it a bit more skid happy but is really intended for high grip on loose surfaces
    You could argue the gearbox does not output equal power front to rear when open (GD are a bit front biased i believe?) so locking the diff “sends” more power to whichever axel would otherwise have less. but it’s not like it sends more than 50% to either when locked.
