12.0 with 460rwhp is good? lol im just busting your ***** vosko
the main reason I broke so many drivetrain parts is TOO MUCH grip. If you want to keep your car alive, try to spin a little at launch. It will hurt your 60ft's a little bit, but if you dont break all the time then i consider it a good thing.
With et streets I was doing a mild burnout (you dont need much) and dumping the clutch at 6.5k. Cutting 1.65 60-ft's doin that. However, That was on stock turbos so i could go ***** out with the launch and not break anything.
With the single i had to keep things spinning some to keep the diff from breaking. Since then I have converted to more hefty drivetrain parts so this season will be the test.

haha vosko snapped a diff housing...however his gas tank didnt break. im prepared for plenty of broken ****, breaking stuff has nothig to do with "what you know"... i mean unless you wanna question the pro guys who break plenty of **** as well. sometimes breaking things is just bad luck, bad timing, or a random event. it ha snothing to do with your knowledge.

I think we can have a balance of both...good times and a ride back home!
I would stick with the street tires and worry about drag slicks once the axles/rear have been upgraded. I'll trade a 1.8 60' from a Azenis 615 to a 1.65 from a MT ETs any day!
With that much power even your tranny will give eventually. I got one word for you : Brace it!
