I really couldn't comment about the racing aspect. I have known trucks around these parts with 2 piece drive lines hauling a insane amount of overloads day in ,day out. hauling logs up and over some rough terrain,and steep hills there tough as nails.

Two piece driveshafts are used because they are stronger not because they are cheaper (which they are not by a longshot). Hawkrod
