Just bought a 8 3/4 have a few questions?

So now what i'm wanting is "sure-grip". Which let me know if i'm correct..this applies power to both wheels in the straight, which lets me lay down 2 nice thick black marks :). but through the turns it will dispurse power more to one tire then the other to allow you to turn easier and with out both tires turning at the same speed?
you pretty much have it. in a turn the rear will let the clutches "slip" if traction on both sides is equal. however, if you are in rain or snow and traction is not good, both tires may spin at the same speed causing loss of traction and control.
