re: carbon fibre driveshafts allowing windup between axles...
i've used carbon fibre in a number of applications (canoe's, paddles and the
like). in no case would you *ever* find any amount of flex without the
destruction of the article. carbon fibre (when properly applied and cured) is
immensely stong in twist and compression.
maybe the shaft was made of something else?
