If its a worthwhile low cost mod I'll do it in the future ...

Sorry, but I can't say anything about the rear lower stiffeners as I have never tried them.

I might try one once she has a few hours on the new suspension ...
I'm seeing them on eBay for around 100 bucks . What's the worse can happen

True
I'm going to look inTo it more .
Though at first glance there isn't much info out there as the spec racers aren't allowed to use them I think ?
If there is some flex at the rear , and the braces work , it'll throw another equation into the mix in regards to stiffer rear ARBs .....

Thanks for the offer , but I took the thread off-topic talking about lower rear braces .
Looking at the design of the car , here if anywhere is where one is needed .
