cup cars don't tie the shock towers together; they tie them to the firewall like our cars. there is debate as to whether any of our cars benefit from tying the towers together. there is definitely benefit to NVH, but as to performance, some say yes, others no. not sure i like kirk's idea at all; tie-ins at the tops of the struts are more important, so IMO a conventional brace would work better. in addition, the OEM firewall / strut tower braces are designed for tensile / compression load. loading them in the middle is not smart.
