If doing a smokey burnout is wrong, I don't want to be right :)
Okay, I don't really do burnouts in a Saab, but there are far worse things you can do to your diff and trans. Spinning the tires itself isn't a big deal, but if you're getting wheel hop or something like that where you're losing traction then biting, that's really rough on it, and the shock load from popping the clutch is really rough. I see what you're saying about peg leg tire spinning, but I don't believe it's an issue (you'd be putting far more load on things if you had a locked dif and were putting all the power the ground rather than spinning some of it away).
