Explosive fracture! - it happens an 52x drives, if the CD is already sufferring from stress fractures.

Once the physical rotation limit is an issue, the fastest possible speed is then 100% full CAV from start to finish - CD-RW drives have already arrived there, but most DVDR drives are still doing Zone-CLV - even on CD-R media (a few do P-CAV, and a rare one actually added P-CAV for DVD - with the transfer rate ramping steadily from 4x to 8x at the start) - mind you, at the beginning of P-CAV mode for CD-R , there was the difficulty in maintaining good calibration over a varying speed, an issue whaich has not yet been worked on much in DVD.
