the whole experience is just the polar opposite of driving something "normal".... which is exactly what I like about it!

Now why would you get a unit like this.. a built in pump for cooler & not run it..

Because it may not be necessary. My diff temp gauge will tell me what I need to do.
I like to add things only if necessary... you know, like a big SB2.2 engine.

I can't see why one would install a system like this and not monitor temps. I'll surely run a diff temp gauge.

Where does one install the temperatur probe for the differential? I presume it needs to be at or near the bottom to stay 'in' the fluid... I'm not sure if I've seen one before...

I'd bet you can attach it to the out going line to the cooler

Accelerating is optional...........stopping is mandatory. Your car WILL stop one way or another.
Agreed, but in Dave's case, and more importantly, mine , we will neither have coolers, at least to start. So I was wondering, if I wanted to run a gauge to monitor the temps to decide if I need a gauge, how I would go about it?

OH didn't realize you weren't running a cooler :sieg

I did some lookin around and drilling/tapping a fitting into the bottom half of the carrier cover looks to be a common method.

That's what I assumed, but I'm iffy on the idea of a sensor hanging out the bottom of the housing. I might have to reconsider one of my gauge choices though if I'm going to do enough road course events.
