I run my car - hard - on the track, and have no problem with stock upper strut mounts.  The suspension has been in for 3 years, and 20 plus track events.  I do run Konis, set all the way stiff, and have no problem with bottoming shocks - but not much suspension travel (with 400lb springs) and not much compliance, I bet I'd bend a wheel if I ran the car hard off road, too :-)
