If you have not checked lately speed limits are going up in Germany these days. Even before you were unlikely to see much over 120mph.
My 325 would have to be doing in excess of 170mph to see a drive shaft speed of 6500 RPM--not likely to happen unless the car is operating in a vacuum. This is based on RPM at 75mph.

Even then, it's nearly 4,000 RPM of a 70 pound driveshaft. Go 133, my top speed, which is 6,200 rpm. That's something like 7500 RPM. It doesnt matter if you're not going to drive 130 or 170 mph!!! It's still DESIGNED to spin that fast. If it were unbalanced, even at 10 mph it would go nuts.
