Had a factory driveshaft in the truck, took it for a tune after the engine/transmission swap. Said, "2nd gear pulls." (Stock driveshaft critical speed is 92 mph) Around 116 mph my driveshaft came apart, he did several 3rd gear pulls. Did a lot of damage and the SOB stuck it to me, never finished the tune I paid for. Luckily, I had built a DS loop, or it would have been way worse.
