A Combination of Traction + too much Tq. (*generally torque comes with HP, but tq is usually low end + HP is mid-range/topend generally speaking)

Can also be a result of wheel hop(which your tranny hates too :D) or lowered cars have a different angle on their axels which (from my experience) has shown to make them more prone to breaking.

hope some of the high horsepower guys can give some input also,
mike
