Not a limited slip differential.

Only one wheel will turn if power is transmited from the engine through the drive train to the rear wheels.
 
yup... rick beat me to it.

that's standard on a non-limited-slip diff. Since we don't get much ice around here in so-cal you might have never experienced the joy of trying to push a car out of a ditch with one wheel spinning like mad.

go to howstuffworks.com and look up differential for good animations and explainations... It's still a mystery to me and I just can't seem to wrap my head around it.
