how likely is it to give out?? i.e. peeling out

how much stress would it take and what kind of damage could be done?

I am not 100% sure on the specifics of the M3 rear but I will see if I can get some more info from my friend at BMW.

From past BMW experience, you have more to worry about with the E46 M motor than the rest of the drivetrain... (of curse I hope nothing bad happens to anymore M3 Motors)...
