Status: offline 		I drift mine with no shaft problems. I use heavy duty CVD shafts, not dogbones. You engine is pretty overpowered for drifting, you might wanna change your gearing and get titanium shafts.

GPM makes some, im not sure how good they are. I cant remember where i bought my ones. They look pretty strong steel constuction though

Status: offline 		The engine on the pics above was the stock T-15 engine just with a aftermarket cooling head. I just broke-in my .15 CV-RX yesterday and it was sweet ass

The 18ss uses heavy duty diff gears, it also gives you better top speed. You only have the EVO diff gears atm. You really need to get taller gearing, you have too much accelleration that it stresses your drivetrain parts.
