Default broken drive shaft

Anyboby have the drive shaft that the spur gear & slipper clutch is on snap ? Was running around on a track and all of a sudden I felt the rpms get real high . I caught it right before it was about to go real real high! { I have done the give it gas when something lets go and blown a motor before.....}so I saved this one. But I never thought that shaft would snap, just in from the threaded end.
Its a sav X ss 4.6

Default RE: broken drive shaft

I just snapped my stock one about 2 weeks ago. I felt my spur gear begin slipping and I went to tighten her down and she snapped right where the threads start.

Slapped on a spare one from a back up tranny and 3 minutes later I'm back on the track lol
