Are halfway ACE's allowed to comment? :P This is what I've done on locking differentials to see how much slip they allowed before locking: Turn the input shaft and hold one output shaft (to simulate one wheel in sand, other wheel on pavement condition) and note how long it takes for the held output shaft to want to move. I would assume the same could be done with a VC. Hold the case stationary and turn one of the shafts and note when the other shaft starts spinning. (use a drill to simulate higher speeds). Hope it helped a bit.
