Dave Posted July 4, 2013 Share Posted July 4, 2013 That's really strange! Not the first one we've seen though, as it seems quite common. I've just never had one go no matter how much power I've put through it on take off (touch wood!!!). You'd think the driveshafts would be made stronger eh!

RobE84 Posted July 4, 2013 Author Share Posted July 4, 2013 Yeah that was my thinking as well. Maybe a cv or something but not the middle of the shaft. s a nice aerodeck drag racing that Sunday. Some fast little Hondas there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WilkesyMB6 Posted July 4, 2013 Share Posted July 4, 2013 At least you were able to smile about it! The same happened to me before, but i didn't use that much power at all Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NIKH25 Posted July 4, 2013 Share Posted July 4, 2013 They are apparently a weak point but at the same time they put up with a lot of abuse, I've never had one go, not on this car anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
