Aluminum Driveshaft


I want an aluminum driveshaft and don't know much about them. i did find out theres a helluva weight difference. will it hold up? any one have one that runs their car? i probably won't race mine, but it is possible i may run it a few times for fun sometime. any thoughts?

stock driveshaft - 19 lbs

Ford Racing aluminum driveshaft - 14 lbs

Rotating weight is huge. The aluminum driveshaft is much stronger and has bigger u-joints as well.
