2way is good for rally, drift, or on cars that oversteer alot but the biggest downfall is the change in cars stability when you brake or accelerate or let off of brake or gas.
i havent heard that helicals are bad for drifting...on the contrary i would think theyd be good because of the more gradual application of torque over clutch type's instant engagement

VLSDS and Weldeds
Added more info about differences in handling charactoristics with clutch typd
Added more about VLSDS
What you want from an LSD while drifting is consistancy. the helictical is trying to correct and send traction to the wheel that needs it. clutch types lock quick, hard, and the same every time and it amounts to a more predictable nature.
Thats Why Weldeds are good for drifting... its locked constantly and divides torque the same every time. which is why most Pros set their clutch LSDs with very low intitial torque and very high max lock.
