I think you would have to be an idiot to strip a set of gears on the road unless your sitting in a parking lot trying autocross with your jeep (also bear in mind my jeep won't be a DD). Either that, or whoever set up your gears completely sucks at it.
Wheeling = not very much heat buildup considering the gears arent exactly turning at 1000mph. Most of the time you see gear failure while wheeling is from shockload at low speeds, which is what cryo treating a gearset helps with. I could care less if my gears are brittle if they can withstand a greater shock load.
BTW i don't understand how a 1/4 pass with a drag car with a trap around 120mph or more creates less heat build up than a jeep daily driven at 45mph.
