Cheers, Mark.
its a kinda failsafe, if during a race one of your front 1way outpus got grit or dirt in it its make the car pull to that side off power so itd be difficult to drive, the 1way layshaft gets around this problem by letting the wheels spin at different rates and the layshaft spins to couner to stop the pull.

its hard to explain hope you understand my explanation
