I was wondering what torque other school use to calculate the half shaft diameter. Last year, we design them for 400Nm and we took the car out (unrestricted) every other weekend without any problem. I still think they should be a little stronger. I plan on testing them before the competition but since I must send the plans very shortly, help on their design would be appreciated.

Thanks
Patrick
