I know about the issue with sprags and LBA or not, relating to shock, freewheel at 2X the RPM and taking apart the drum. There are plenty examples out there. My question is, does it seem this is predominately an issue w/ slicks and racing?

Back in the day, we used to do burnouts all the time in 1st, pedal the car on and off the throttle with street tires and I never once heard of a 727 coming apart on the street back then. Granted HP/TQ was not what it is now for a healthy 440 like now.

Just trying to get a better understanding if this is just a slicks/track issue as I've always started burnouts in 1st. The reason I'm asking, I now have a fairly quick 440 and guess at the very least I should add a blanket to the trans. But I have no plans to run slicks.

Helpful comments appreciated.
