is this a good setup. What is it worth?

Purner's the man.

they're only good if you want to beat the car in the other lane.

That's the set-up we all use. Also, change your "next up" to half shafts!

Bought mine used for Grand. I'll say no more than $13 or 14 hundred. Better buy the half shafts first because they are going to be gone!

Is the consensus here that if you run slicks you need the HD's, but if your running stock pilot's the stock shafts are OK? Are there any cases of somebody twisting the shafts on street tires?

I've heard of many cases where the pilots hooked up and the shafts let go. Somebody did it in the ontario club with a stock GEN 1 RT/10

If you're serious about racing, you need the shafts.
