Can't beat good old fashioned steel

I was leaving a recent car show, and I was behind a guy in a newer Chevy truck. He went to burn out as he left, and his rear tires chirped a little bit then stopped. All of a sudden what looked like pieces of fiberglass started shooting out from under his truck. I pulled up next to him and asked him what happened. He said he didn't know but his truck wouldn't move. He looked underneath it and said his driveshaft was broke in half. Turns out he had an aluminum driveshaft with some kind of fiber coating on it. I guess you just can't beat a good old fashioned steel driveshaft, huh? :p
