Default Nobody has had any rearend problems?

I can go sideways pretty much at will but I don't want to change things to improve traction and create other problems( brake something in the drive train like u joints, crutch plates, axels, etc.)

The Goodyear GTII's have a reputation of being fairly hard and spin easily. Not much better than the Goodrich TA's.
Get a stickier tire and you'll have much less problem. As far as the rear, I've not heard much about problems with them, but if you plan to drag race or hammer it off the line a lot, you might want to consider upgrading the rear with a Torsen and some custom CV's rated at higher horsepower or going to a live axle arrangement.

www.dutchmanaxles offers some very tough axles.

I have seen a lot worst damage done to the cars from people getting sideways on the street with curbs and all than I have to the drivetrain when getting good traction. Just don't launch it off the line.
