Why does my car shake at high speeds?

I have a 305 tbi and i am currently running 13.20's at the strip. I have 245/50/16 tires up front and MT street 26x11.50 tires in the rear and at about 85 or 90 my car starts to shake going down the track. what is the casue of this, both sets of tires have been recently balanced so i know that it isnt that.

It's the steel driveshaft that usually causes the vibration around 90mph. Swap an aluminum driveshaft and that should fix it. It fixed mine.
