Default Will drag gears live thrugh occasional street duty???

I made two 4500 RPM clutch dumps at the track and one 5500 RPM dump at the track deadhooking on 28 12.50 15 ET Streets. The 5500 dump cleaned ALL the teeth off my freshly broken in Richmond 4.56s (Moser 12-Bolt 33 splines Eaton HD posi). The question of the day is if I put in a drag gear that will take the hit at the track can I still drive this thing occasionaly on the street with some 70 MPH highway driving (10 miles one way to work) without having any troubles with wear or heat.

No, they can't handle the heat.
