the statement makes sense because we dont have enough torque to cause much shock to the system..
right??

yeah right man, the differential is the first to go if you do constant 5k+ rpm clutch drops.

don't do it, its not worth it.

Ditto

It's like being in a foot race and getting to stand behind u and kick u upon takeoff. It will hurt a few times and then something is bound to break.
