Sure, but when your crawling you want them locked all the time. Its flat ground we are reffering to.


The answer is no. And yes, mine is faster.

You don't necessarily want them locked all the time when crawling.

On the courses, there are often flat parts (like plateaus, etc) on the rocks where you need to make the U-turns for the gates. It's hard to explain, but I'll see if I can find a picture unless someone else finds a better way to explain it.

Edit: This is the best I could do:



On the top part of the picture (the u-turn between gates) it's a flat section where an unlocked diff would work wonders. It's kinda hard to see the grade of the terrain from the picture, but several of us mentioned wishing we could unlock our diffs for those two gates.
