Blake, I noticed in your post this pic http://i1235.photobucket.com/albums/...TorqueArm1.jpg this car has no subframe connectors at all? is that because the torque arm transmits a good deal of the load to the front or what? I thought subframe connectors were a given on these cars. Is that a color your system comes in and what is it? also, what type of coating is on the bottom?

this car is getting a Tiger cage, so the sub frame connectors are not really required. because there is no, little load on the spring pockets an all the forces are transfered to the front X member it reduces the need. redZed has no subframe connectors, and it has done auto X events with no issues.

The Bronze color you see there is not available as one of our standard options, but your local powdercoater could order it.

I've heard Brett state that before as well. Would love to see some real world torsional rigidity comparison testing between the Tiger cage and SFCs.
