Race Driveshafts, bespoke.
Has anybody had a driveshaft made up by these guys?

Need a pair for the single seater, don't really want them breaking.

I had a pair made, by track and rally, for my last bike engined single seater (in 2001)...
You could also try Geoff Berrisford (GB Engineering) he has made me a few special shafts.

The only thing with GB is that I had to keep ringing them to chase them up. They got the lengths and splines right but forgot to gun drill them.
Id waited about 8 weeks by then and they were the last parts of the Motaleira.
Geof (Berresford) did reduce the cost to below that of a non-drilled set, as he would have had to start making them again because of the hardening
process.
Cost me about £280 for the pair.

Most shaft suppliers seem to have similar turn round times.
As martin says budget 6 to 8 weeks!

I used bailey morris to make mine and they turned them round in a few days.
Nothing fancy just lightweight shorter than std push-ins.

Jim,
Were your shafts made from scratch or shortened? I rang Bailey Morris and they said they would only be able to cut and shut a pair of shafts. Ideally
I'd like to have new ones.
