Vette's have CF shafts too and Gawd knows they're abused! Differentials explode and axles break but not the driveshaft!

Less rotational mass and weight is the benefit..

My bestfriend and I separated the yoke from a CF shaft in his '93 ZR1 w/ slicks and a Lingenfelter 368 Although, more than likely a bad shaft. We went back to the aluminum one and now all we break are axles.
