Welded differentials.....who is willing to admit that they have done it?

I've seen them welded between the side gears and bevel gears but the Roadkill guys welded the side gears to the case. That looks like if the welds broke, the differential would just return to normal operation unless slag got between the gears.
I will not be drag racing the car. This is just for dirt road drifting and off road fun.
