Can someone tell me why triangulated strut tower braces are not allowed in IT? Please don't say that they go against the "philosophy" of IT!
In my view, these braces are essential in maintaining front-end handling predictability. Ask anybody who has a deep understanding of chassis engineering and they will tell you that a simple strut-to-strut brace is almost worthless... So why would the GCR not allow you to firm up your car in the name of predictability, hence safety?
I wish to take my Mustang into ITR, and really do not relish the idea of having to remove the cowl bolts from the strut brace, because I remember how flimsy the front of the car was before the brace was installed. It was like a Ramen noodle, and no wonder! The platform architecture dates back to the friggin' 1970s.
