That's a matter of preference by the car owner. Welding it is obviously stiffer than bolting, but bolting it in makes it removable. Many feel a bolt-in is better for track usage just incase of a "whoopsie" and the car needs to come apart, but we've also found that if it needs repair, any reputable shop can cut the connection, fix the car, and re-weld it pretty easily. We've done it both ways.
