Default Rear end Strength?

Has anyone ever heard of someone breaking their rear end, like breaking/cracking a diff or the pinion gears? I was unsure of the strength, and have launched my Z a few times, should I be worried about the rear end at all, or will the clutch give out first after a lot of launches?

From my readings on here I see more people busting axles than rears...don't know about FI guys tho...Im willing to bet axles (from hopping or launching on slicks) and/or clutch will go before your rear does

someone correct me if I am wrong tho!

Yes you should be worried if you are the kind of person who worries a lot.
