using another make to make a point, and not to piss anyone off.

most half shaft failures in ford mustangs we not due to excess power being used with IRS, nor weakness of the IRS. most were due to wheel hop. and the odd force of wheel hop. most stock mustangs don't come close to HP that some of us running IRS, have but they fail nonetheless.
in all the enjoyment of this thread i did some reading on half shaft failure amongst alot of different makes and models and the common factor i read was wheel hop, drag radials and slicks on the dragstrip.
there is a reason why the chebbie boys don't drag their vettes with the factory rears.

just sayin......
