"LSD (lysergic acid diethylamide) is one of the major drugs making up the hallucinogen class. LSD was discovered in 1938 and is one of the most potent mood-changing chemicals. It is manufactured from lysergic acid, which is found in ergot, a fungus that grows on rye and other grains."
They didn't used to give you a manual with it in the 60s, did they? Re: LSD?

Regarding drifts: whats the point with drifting? It looks cool but nothing more. It slows down, it kills the tires...if drifting is important...well...

Seems there is some discussion that the ony thing "LSD" is good for is inefficient drifting and burning tires. I ordered this option and wonder now if I may have added something to the car that I may wish I hadn't. Will this feature make the car less efficient? Thanks for the feedback.

No, it will help you get power to the ground more efficiently. However, it will also make drifts easier, should you so desire.

Why would it be easier to drift with LSD? As far as I know LSD increases cornering speed by increasing the grip. You can longer drive neutral with LSD, even break later. LSD increases the track performance much more then PCCB.
Please explain.

I try to explain..but i don't know if i'm able..
Without LSD the wheel that loose grip take all the power and the one with more grip as "no" traction,imagine on a left turn:the left rear wheel will loose traction becouse the weight go to the right side of the car and the right rear wheel have traction,but WITHOUT LSD the power go to the left rear wheel that is "easier" to let turn
With LSD the rear wheels try to make the same turn(the left and the right one) so if you make a left turn,with the LSD the right rear wheel don't loose turn becouse take more traction,but remain with the same turn of the left weel that have loose traction(all the two wheels make same turn and the most importand you don't loose traction) ...so if you make a drift,is easiest to stay in drift becouse you don't loose traction on the rear wheels..
Maybe is not clear..but in Italian is easy for me to explain..
Understand?
NO!

heh i KNEW someone would make a drug comment.
it will definitely help on the track.
How would drugs help on track???
Wouldnt it be dangerous??
The car will seen to bend and actually flow around the tightest corners. Acceleration will become explosive, even violent. The music from the radio will become intoxicating, almost hypnotic. The lights of the vehicles that you are passing will become vivid and blur and trail like you are in a starships warp drive. Someone will say "orange sunshine" and you will start laughing..................
Woa!
Getting a flashback.........
