I will agree, however the limits of driveline components are more so a function of traction (too much of it). Given there are no issues with weakness in the driveline in stock form as you see sometimes in other cars, a Z with double/triple the stock HP won't necessarily break anything if the tires spin. Shock is what breaks parts, and that can happen in a huge HP-range.

Which begs the question...who has launched stock or bolt-on Z on proper drag-tires?
