As long as you don't do any 6k+ clutch dumps with the tires warmed up, you should be ok. Just slip the clutch a little on the launch to help save those half shafts as best as possible.

I run the Same tire with my pp car and haven't had any issues yet. I've been 122 mph with them in the quarter. On the track and street they hook very good. I don't launch at 5000 but have done some 4000-4500 with no issues yet. My clutch is probably slipping a little which may be saving them. I was going to go with a slick, but play more on the street than at the track. The m&h handle pretty good and hook well. They even did ok coming home in a light rain a few weeks ago.

Here is a video at the track with a 4500 rpm launch. Again, I think the clutch is slipping. My best 60' ft is only 1.699 and that was a 11.5 pass.
