think the v6's and the v8 cars with the speed limiter at 110mph got the steel ones.

I just made 455hp to the wheels and made about 12 passes with 4500 rpm lanches. I have a chrome moly ds sitting in my living room, I guess its time to put it in lol. Haven't hit the nitrous with it yet(653.4hp) probably a good thing.

gonna try it Well guys, I guess I am going to test the limits of it tomorrow. I will be putting 500rwhp to it through slicks. I DO have a driveshaft loop so if it does break it shouldnt damage anything. Ill post how it holds up.
