He was saying the question was already answered in the first post.

As delco said, you'll never break a spool.
On the 'bad for corners and tyre wear', thats just a myth. But it wouldn't effect you if you believed what your cousins uncles next door neighbour thought about spools anyway, drag cars dont turn corners...

Ive had a mini spool in my 307 vl with vn head 800 holly high lifter cam, shaved ported head, stage 2 shift kit 2300 stall and it gets driven daily, not flogged but not babies, I haven't broken a single a axle and my tyre last just as long with the spool and I spit it out occasionally, and belted everyone goes on about time and place I have 3km drive way so I use it for fun lol

If you are on a tight budget, don't spend money on a spool, just weld the spiral gears and you will be smoking :smoking:

My understanding was that the mini spool still let the outside wheel spin faster when going around corners.... Just like a auto locker on a forby...

minispool is a solid cast tool steel sleave that locks both axles into 1 zero slip
