    We have been circuit racing quite a lot during the last few years with a 1965 911 e.g. in Peter Auto 2.0 Liter Cup, Le Mans Classic and SPA Six Hours. I have not seen any SWB race car in Europe with Nadella drive axels in racing. They are all with Lobro, which is a FIA approved solution, but many/or most of them very likely with standard GKN drive axels. We were also using standard drive shafts for a long time, until a year ago a standard NEW drive shaft lasted only about 3,5 km in Mugello. Not even the first full lap. After that incident we changed to the GKN race shafts sold by Tuthill and since then we have not had any problems. I highly recommend these racing drive shafts if you are seriously tracking or racing the car. The other issue is that you need the service the driveshafts regularly and use the right quality grease.
