Nice pass but I don't think it should qualify for stock list. Stock means stock - how the car came off the assembly line. Running stickier tires, regardless if they are "street" tires or not, is NOT STOCK!

if it wasn't an issue DSS and G-force etc would be out of business. this has been going on for years with every IRS equipped rear drive car with a manual. It happens with autos too but not as often.But good luck and I hope yours will be fine. Some people are fine for a while. A lot of it is how the person drives. Feathering the clutch a bit and then dead hooking is a whole lot different than just popping the clutch at 4k and dead hooking. that impact from a manual equipped car is what breaks things.
