The 'danger' is impact resistance. As long as you don't smack into a boulder, it should last just as long as any other type of material.


The cars that came with them from the factory are more using what is more appropriately known as fiber reinforced plastics and it's quite a bit more durable. They also run guards under the driveshaft tunnel to prevent rocks from hitting them. It doesn't take a bolder to kill a CF driveshaft...
