If the top shaft is locked it would mean all four wheels could slip whereas the clutch basket would send power to the wheels with traction. However if the power is evenly distributed to all four wheels all the time it may be better.
Suggestions? Also, what kind of tire should I run for those conditions?

I say get the basket . I have run mine pinned and unpinned and used the basket on both . They each do different things and shouldn't get confused . Once you have done the pin mod it takes a matter of minutes to change from one to the other . I run on a similar track surface and have found unpinned with the basket to be the way to go at present . Once my center diff arrives hopefully that will be the hot setup . Rebars and Wishbones work well and have also had good results with Holeshots .
