Its not learn to handle.......
I have the born in fear of breaking drivetrain parts off the line....can't get my brain beyond it....Road course I am fine (I know makes no sense), just can't get passed destroying the drivetrain off the line for some reason. Its like a mental block (and man do I have a lot of mental blocks lol)

Still on stock axels..
Actually, has anyone truely overpowered the stock axels or CV joints yet?
We know wheel-hop has broken them (but that will break dss pro axels too). We know diff's have been ripped out. We know trans's have gone......but has anyone actually pushed AND broken stock axels or CV's purely by overpowering them (and also having the traction to lay it down of course)?

That's the trick. It has kept my AWD DSM stock transfer case and axles in one piece at serious HP levels.
It's the shock load that kills parts, be it from the launch, or the windup and release of wheelhop.
In that car, the technique I use is hold up as hard as I can on the emergency brake and release the clutch until I feel it dragging on the engine. Middle yellow light, brake down, clutch out, the throttle is already on the floor and stays like that, and hope I can get my hand on the shifter to hit second before I bounce off the rev limiter too long.

That scares the **** out of me on highway.
Was out with Stylin z and some friends round here.....on pump top of 3rd and 4th hit a bump and it starts spinnin....I get out of it, but I'm sure if I stayed in they'd snap too.
