I would say that having the output shafts break in 2008 would be a sign that something wasn't working. I know this year they used dewalts as well, but the shock loading on the shafts was significantly reduced from 2008. I would imagine that the chain that lewis is using will serve as a bit of a shock absorber and reduce the amount of broken shafts or star keys. I know when I am designing a drivetrain, I want to never have to work on it other than tensioning chain. Having to replace a shaft or even a dewalt every so often is not a viable option in my opinion.
