xdrive and burnouts - how bad?

Burnouts with xdrive? How bad are they? How many can you do till you break something? Yes, DSC off and brake boost on a tuned xdrive car can deliver quite a smoke show.

I have done this on my old m240ix and while it's fun, I know it's burning out the clutch packs within the transfer case. I'd avoid doing them if you can as the transfer case itself doesn't hold well to stage2 long term WITHOUT doing burnouts.

It happened to me a couple times with a failed launch at the drags (accidentally) so I figured Id try it out in the burnout box. Not sure its necessary at all but is fun (other than getting chassis stabilization warning). Thanks for the inputs!
