Hell, I think I put the most stress on my car back when it had 400 at the wheels. In my opinion, none of our cars can launch hard enough, or run sticky enough tires to worry about that part of the drive train. With my car making mid 500s at the wheels, I'm really not concerned about breaking these parts in question. I haven't shied away from running my car hard, and plan on running it harder in the future. Who knows, maybe I will eat my words. That would suck though, I'm really tired of replacing parts already.

I didn't see any Vin Diesel launches at RTTC. Maybe 200tw is to prevent wheelies!

Road courses, where you're maybe only in 3rd or 4th gear, you aren't putting serious torque multiplication through the rearend compared to a 1st gear drag launch. You can save some weight & inertia by opting for a smaller spline count.
