For 19 years, Fast Shafts keeps USMTS racers fast and first

Entering their 19th season of supporting competitors in the Summit USMTS National Championship presented by RacinDirt, Fast Shafts will return as the Official Driveshaft of the USMTS in 2024.

Fast Shafts will be keeping USMTS racers safe and fast by awarding a new carbon fiber drive shaft to the main event winner at five USMTS crown jewel events during the 2023 campaign and a $500 certificate to the USMTS National Champion.

Furthermore, Fast Shafts will return as the sponsor of Heat Race #2 and award a certificate worth 10% off a Fast Shafts product at every USMTS event while also contributing cash to the points funds for all competitors.

About Fast Shafts< br /> The roots of Fast Shafts stem back to over 30 years ago when Pat Fagen started an axle repair business. It wasn’t long before he realized the demand for a reliable driveshaft builder.

Fast Shafts is the result of many years spent testing, innovating and building driveshafts for street vehicles and the motorsports community. Headquartered in Des Moines, Iowa, Fast Shafts is a premier manufacturer of performance driveshafts that supplies race teams and motorsport distributors throughout the United States.

With over 35 years of on-track testing experience, each staff member at Fast Shafts understands the expectations of our customer base. We pride ourselves on measuring down to 1/16" on every driveshaft build. All of our driveshafts are precisely fabricated using quality products and balanced using high-end machinery.

Fast Shafts manufactures carbon fiber, steel, aluminum, and chromoly driveshafts. Our complete product offering and services include driveshaft repair, new driveshafts, center sections for Ford 9" rear ends, transmission slip yokes, rear end yokes, ring and pinions, bearings, spools, shim kits, and more.
