You are not suspending general physical laws here. The harder you stress something the more wear and tear occurs. This happens whether or not the car "was built to play hard".

As to what is "too hard" it is a tradeoff between money+time-in-the-shop vs enjoyment of the vehicle. If you think drifting and releasing streams of carbon particles into the atmosphere is a good use of your time on the planet go with that. If you place a greater value on expenditure of money on family, friends, causes, education, and protecting the air and water, etc.. play a little less hard.
