also the car was doing great cooks a week or two before popped two perfect new tires at the same time, then i went in a 3 min cook comp and popped the drivers side rear, but not the passenger rear... now yes i know doing cooks would be the reason for the inevatable demise but what im trying to say that could may well be the sign of a cv about to go, so if your lsd starts hitting better on one side... go get it checked... could save time and effort

by cooks im assuming you mean burnouts or skids.

either way the most amount of pressure is put on the CVs before the traction of the tyres gives way.

as soon as the tyres spin up to a good speed and dont keep stop starting they should be fine.
