    I got mine thru Wadon racing.You can buy a warranty for $100.If you have a ball spline you should have one for safety.

            This maybe a stupid question but everyone says " With a Ballspline" , I run a falcon trans been running it for 4 years never a single issue, A carbon shaft will not work with anything but a Ballspline???? can someone clear this up to me? Thanks for the help.

              A CF shaft will work with ANY transmission and is a great safety item. With a Bert Ballspline trans a CF shaft should be made manditory just for the safety factor. A ballspline trans has the driveshaft bolted to the trans so in the event of a failure the shaft will not come out and will be like a propeller on the back of the trans.

                Has anyone seen the new Quarter Master carbon fiber shafts? They are a pretty nice looking piece. We currently run Wiles and have held up great with a ton of abuse.

                I also agree. They should be mandatory on a ball spline. An aluminum shaft does so much damage when it breaks on a normal trans. On a ball spline it just tears everything apart under there, not to mention tearing into the drivers compartment.
