dam man that sucks how did you get home? O and I am convinced I have a water issue launched the car like 5 times on the way home and it ran awesome let it sit for 10 and it started screwing up again. but well now you can get a CF drive shaft to go with that hood of yours.

I see a lot of stock driveshafts breaking, it happens quite often. Our PST driveshafts will handle the power. Bob

Strange Chromeoly or PST would be a good choice to replace it.
