Carbon Fiber drive shafts also let your engine wind up quicker due to the lower weight. It would have similiar effects as the light weight flywheels. The carbon fiber driveshaft results in a lower rotational mass so the engine does not work as hard to turn the driveshaft. This also means you will get more rear wheel horsepower compared to someone using a metal one.
