Chassis brace for drag racing

[Midway Chevrolet Performance Center]

Hotchkis, great brace for all uses. Lingenfelter uses them in there cars. PM me for pricing.

I have the Granatelli 1G brace kit. Unfortunately I have the Kook's LT's too and I need to modify the front brace in order to clear the headers, so for now I am just running the back half of the kit. I also have the BMR 4-point strut brace as well. It is a noticeable difference, after install I shaved .2 off my 1/4 time.

So you added no other mods made no other changes and picked up .2 with the chassis brace? What were the weather conditions on each pass?

Jamie,when you see Ted,asked him about Scotty's car.I think Ted did post that the chassis brace helped Scotty's car.
Or maybe it was Scotty that posted.
Thanks for the info TravisTrout,that was one question that I wanted to asked about the 1G brace kit.

Thanks for the info Midway,I'm actually considering Hotchkis.Easy to install and they are lightweight(aluminum).From what I'm told anyway.

Wheel's car had the Moroso bolt-in sub-frame connectors. He had them on the car before he started going to Ted. Moroso, here in CT, used his car to fab them up.

I never noticed anything when I raced his car but I didn't race it before they were installed.

I don't have one either. Seems like they only slow cars down.

no...actually only the slow cars run them.

I have ran the granatelli subframes connectors for about 13k miles and 500 passes or so. Seemed to help with short time consistency. But I also made several changes at once to the rear suspension. And a 20" MT Radial.

My favorites I found when researching were Hotchkis, LG, and moroso. Notice they are all working similarly. I found something I didn't like about all the others. If you go by price your best deal will be lg or moroso. I opted for LG because I dealt with Anthony before when I had my vette and he took care of me...so I found him at the fest and bought my braces.
