aluminum driveshaft?

[FireFighter]

Hey guys i got my new driveshaft in and it feels great, but my question is how much will this affect my 60' time? right now im pullin 2.3xx i would like to get it to 2.2 or 2.1? is that possible now?

likely none at all.

60ft is how much traction you get, period.

it won't affect 60 ft. much at all, maybe a couple hundredths. the lower weight may affect traction in the rear, allowing for wheel hop. u might have to get lca's if this becomes a big problem. it will help u at higher speed tho, since something spinning weighs a lot more. expect to see ur mph go up and to lose maybe a tenth off ur 1/4 time.

less rotating mass to the rear is always a good thing.....if your going from steel to aluminum expect about 2 to 3 HP at the rear wheel....If going from steel to carbon fiber you can expect around 5 HP at the rear wheel. As far as a lower 60 ft time I agree with the above statements...

to sum it up... it will but the difference will be unnoticeable.

In the entire 1/4 it will make a slight difference though.
