Can I install a limited slip diff and still keep my e-locker?

Lol, the 4runner? A wild beast that will rampage out of control? Are we talking about the same vehicle? Mine is more like a geriatric gerbil, it'll eventually get moving.

As for the courses I've taken, they were all in association with Summit Point raceway in WV. For a number of years I was living on pennies but interested in track racing so I got involved with corner-working (front row seats, free admission, usually free food and the drivers/riders were pretty free with their drink in the evenings). I'd do any event I was free for, and a number of those were track days with teaching where our "pay" was some training at the end of the day.

Wait, then I had the Porsche 944 in Atlanta, and did a couple track days at Road Atlanta with the Porsche Club. AutoX was mostly with friends (I'm a mechanic, so more trading my time/skills for them to loan me a car for some runs and a little training).

Finding someone local is simply doing some digging. Find a racetrack, look for their calendar of events and then start contacting those who are doing things and find out what they do. Ask if they know of anyone else who might have a skidpad or do wet road driver training. Prices will be different now than when I did things, and be different east coast vs west... There may even be some drivers (racers) out there who offer training one on one that you can find through the various classifieds (might need to do a "looking for" ad to find them).

For those who want to drive in the snow, the only school I know of in this country is based out of Steamboat Springs, in CO.

In the mid to late 90’s I raced a 93 ZX7R Ninja at Summit. Fun times.

I should mention that my 4Runner isn't normal. I'm at 326 WHP, or around 375-400 HP at the crank. If I press the skinny pedal too hard the tires move but the 4Runner doesn't.

I think the closest road track to me would be Sonoma Raceway, but I agree that would be kinda pricey. I'll take a look and see if there's any small time places near me that might offer classes. Thanks for the tips & info!
