Default Nitto 275dr's kill stock drivshaft

on my 6th run at SAR tonight i decided to dump it at 3k thinking that i wouldnt hook that good (on my street tires 275/17 555r's).

The tires, being heated real good hooked great and twisted my ds like a coke can. Time for a new one and 5k launches! any recomendations? I was thinking a PST aluminum from exotic performance plus.

Nasty98TA has a c-moly one for sale that is pretty bullet proof. Might want to see what he wants for it

I dont know how strong the stock steal ones were but i would like something that Im never gonna break. I dont want to replace it with something that will still be the weak link in my drivetrain.
