If you're building a monster with drag slicks, ERA offers high-strength stub axle shafts to handle them. I have the custom ERA rear, but saw no need for the high strength stubs -- my Yokos just break loose anyway. I forget what HP the ERA rear is "comfortably" rated for, even with drag slicks, but it was higher than my build. Now, in the interest of full disclosure, there were reports of wheel-hop, under heavy off the line acceleration, with the standard Jag rear. I believe there was a fix for that, and it may in fact have been nothing more than an anomaly. If I was building a drag car, I wouldn't use the stock Jag rear though -- the ERA rear is not that much more money for a nice upgrade.
