This makes alot of sense Hyprspec so thanks .....  . I guess it's to try to overcome tire slippage loss (especially in the 60') with pure power ....and lots of it !!

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.
