Anyone break zl1 drivetrain?
Has anyone broke zl1 axles or driveshafts? I've been searching around a lot lately and don't see any thing on broken axles or driveshafts from zl1s. Which surprises me since there's lots of high hp and drag raced cars.

http://www.camaro5.com/forums/showthread.php?t=388355 Good read right here. This drivetrain is a beast, it's one of the biggest reasons why I sold my 2011 640 rwhp SC SS to purchase a ZL1.

I'm at 704 whp with well over 500 passes on my Z and all is good so far. Made 8 nine second passes on Sun without a complaint from the rear end.

Nope unbreakable, the axles and driveshaft can handle more than the transmission.

I love reading threads like this. I'll take the extra LBs for having parts that can take a beating. A muscle car built like a muscle car should be.
