Torsen w/o prop shaft

Couple hundred feet?  Push it.

20 miles?  Don't do it.  Running all the power out one end of a diff 
(while it is spinning ~10 times faster on the "no power" output) is 
really hard on it.

As I understand it, the TorSen will split torque 90/10, so it is 
"doable".  If this was a 93 Frod Ranger on its last legs, it might be 
fun to try.  But an A8Q?  Isn't that a pretty nice car?
