Which Posi type?

Now that I've got my rear axle identified, I am trying to decide which style posi I want. An Eaton/Yukon clutch disc type, or a Detroit TrueTrac. The car will be mostly a weekend cruiser/roadtrip car with the occasional(4 or so times a year) grudge match drag race. Price is just about the same for either style.
Thanks!

I recently replaced the factory Eaton Gov-Loc posi in my truck with a TruTrac. The Gov-Loc is that crappy design that forces one of the wheels to start spinning before a weight flings out due to centrifugal force, engaging the posi. Never liked that system. I'm happy with the TruTrac.

I agree on both things Joe says. The worm gear posi is durable and street friendly.

I've used them on street and beat them on the strip with good results. Best bang for your buck. And a Rebate too...
