BALS ensures that both tires spin, like a limited slip differential. it doesn't cut engine power.

wasn't this established on a post a LONG time ago?
sorry bud that brake differential reduces the power to the wheels when any or all of em are spinning. Yes i can spin the tires going around a corner (wait isnt that what this system is supposed to PREVENT?) but the truck will only spin the wheels on a straight line start for about 10 feet then the system kicks in (since wheels never spin at the same rate unless the differential itself locks) and shuts down the fun not allowing either wheel to spin - I also suspect that the computer is limiting torque in first gear. With 305 horsepower in a truck I should be able to roast em for damn near as long as i like.
