You're driving on a track, and in a corner, the inner wheel hits a curb and momentarily lightens. This is normal in track driving. The problem is that during that brief moment, the other wheel doesn't get any drive – the engine's power isn't transferred to the road.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"888\" data-end=\"1174\"\u003eGear-type lockers require load on both axles to function. Therefore, in a situation where one wheel lightens, the drive to the other wheel is momentarily interrupted. The result is that on a track or during aggressive driving, power is only intermittently transferred to the wheel with traction.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1176\" data-end=\"1560\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1176\" data-end=\"1213\"\u003eWith Wavetrac, the situation is different.\u003c\/strong\u003e Its patented cam mechanism prevents loss of drive, even if one wheel lightens. The mechanism can create the necessary load inside the differential to compensate for the lost traction, allowing power to be directed to the wheel with traction. The result is smoother power delivery in corners, more predictable handling, and overall a faster car.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-section-id=\"19edy3x\" data-start=\"1562\" data-end=\"1577\"\u003eOther Benefits\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul data-start=\"1579\" data-end=\"2331\"\u003e\n\n\u003cli data-section-id=\"199mq2j\" data-start=\"1579\" data-end=\"1892\"\u003e\n\n\u003cp data-start=\"1581\" data-end=\"1892\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1581\" data-end=\"1648\"\u003ePatented Carbon Fiber Bias Plate for Satellite Gears\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"1648\" data-end=\"1651\"\u003eIn most gear-type lockers, the satellite gears rotate directly against the housing, causing friction to change with use and the locker's efficiency to decrease.
