Wa-Don Racing Introduces New Line of Drive

Wa-Don Racing, the leading rebuilder/dealer for Bert Racing Transmissions, is now a stocking dealer for a new line of carbon fiber and aluminum driveshafts. The Owner of  Wa-Don Racing is very enthusiastic about the latest addition to his product line. “After everything that Jeremy Clements has gone through with the injury he received as a result of a steel driveshaft, we began looking for a safer alternative and we have found it. These shafts are so much safer and they are really put together well.”

The carbon fiber shafts of today are made to disintegrate during a catastrophic driveline failure. Because of this disintegration the shaft won’t enter the drivers’ compartment. The aluminum driveshafts are also much safer than the steel mini shafts that many racers have been using in the last several years. Because the aluminum is much softer than steel it is also much less likely to penetrate the drivers compartment.

“We were so compelled by the incidents we have seen and what we have learned through some testing that we actually recommend a carbon fiber or aluminum driveshaft. “The carbon fiber is a little more expensive but I think it will be worth the cost in safety and peace of mind.”

Wa-Don Racing was founded in 1987 and is committed to customer service and support. Many of the southeast’s top racers including 2005 O’Reilly Southern All Star Champion Chris Madden, 2004 and 2005 Carolina Clash Champion Ricky Weeks, 2005 Southern All Stars East Champion Dennis Franklin, 2005 Southern Nationals Champion Jeff Cooke and Ivedent Lloyd National Late Model Series Champion count on Wa-Don for all of their driveline needs.
