Yes street tires and wheel hop hurt half shafts. That is why I asked if the "1000hp" rating was if you were on slick or street tires.

So I would imagine these shafts are rated for 1000hp on slicks and maybe 700hp on street tires? would you agree?

I would go with that but I would say you can probably push it harder on street tires than 700whp

*slightly off topic*

Although at much, MUCH lower HPs (and on a different vehicle), my CVs never broke on standing race starts. They always broke at the 2-3 upshift. Video.

Anyways,  :thumbs: for DSS Axles/CV Joints. I'm sure they'll serve the Kappa croud nicely.
