sonny -

diff , build it till you can hold both outdrives and just turn the gear in the centre

slipper , make sure it slips before the diff and tighten/loosen till your front wheels just lift off the ground when you punchthe throttle on a high grip surface( i use my hall carpet lol)
it will slip for a couple of feet usually , then adjust trackside , looser slipper is easier to drive but can limit the acceleration of the car , too tight and your car will be pointing at the sky permenantly

HTH
