But now djpelosi just snapped his recently and he said above "Launch control has literally been destroying axles. I've seen instances where it's happened on both the street and on a track." So I am pretty confused now, maybe djpelosi can chime in on if those are stock C8 /drag radial or what. The other place said stock C8 the axle got no problem.
My axle got snapped on stock street tires but it was during an attempted burnout on a prepped track surface.
