well, no, really, do you? because you seem to think that your going to be quicker with it, which doesn't really make any sense at all.

if you can't make your rear end break loose, you dont know how to drive like a teenager. DR's or not, its not too hard to spin the tires. a line lock will help, most definately, but you dont really need it.
