It pretty much works the same on dirt also. Team O'Neil runs
their quattros locked both in the center and at the rear (4KQs).
The quattros with this setup are pretty predictable through a
pendulum turn - moreso than the Impreza I also drove there.

On the other hand, trail braking doesn't work well at all with
the locked diff. The Impreza excels at this.
