You shouldn't break cause the drag radials will spin a little. Broken axles usually come from getting too much traction from a slick.

what breaks axels is having all of the torque suddenly hitting the drivetrain with no release. IE, normally your tire spin and gradually let power to the ground (even with smaller slicks). When you don't launch high enough and you tires bite, then **** breaks. This could happen on nearly stock cars.
