The problem is how the power is delivered. Obviously with sticky tires and a lot of rotating power the energy has to go somewhere. IE the weakest point. How much power you put down is not the problem, the problem is when you start attempting to hook it up(as with DR's or slicks) The sudden Shock to halfshafts is whats breaking them. If you want' to avoid snapping your halfshafts you need to stay away from DR's and the higher stall. The dragstrip in notoriously stickier than the street. Things I can get away with the the track just produces tire smoke on the street.
A buddy of mine is running a turbo'ed 408 WS6, this thing makes over 850 to the wheels easily...he still has stock rear end and axels. Why doesn't he break his **** you ask? because he never tries to hook up. Meaning his tires are the weakest point. So when all the power comes out to play and starts looking to break ****, the first place it finds is the traction limit of the tires.
