But you're only going in a straight line!  No "differential" betwen the
rotation rates means no need for a differential, n'est-ce pas?  The lock up
would be to keep traction if one or more wheel start spinnin' while youse
draggin'.  Actually I guess it would prevent spinnin' until all four wheels
could burn...
