What are you F-body guys who are primarily streetcars and some autoX using for torque arms? Right now I'm stock. I have been bent on the idea of a global west trac link after the SOTP feel in a friend's car. But now I'm thinking a simple full length adjustable like the UMI 2205 should do the job without feeling too noticeable and noisy. What's your opinion?

You just have to see it let an F body out-brake everything else and you'd be convinced. I am still exploring the deep, deep ends of the fastest straights, but only the very best factory roadracers can stay with me. Worth every nickle.

Pics would be great, that's where I'm leaning if it's the best of both worlds. |

It was a complex install but works so well it was the best single change to the car since I built it in 2004. You will need a fabricator or at least a good welder to get it done. If you're near Mission Raceway Park sometime this summer you can see it in action. Here's a little video of my buddy from Prince George driving the car for the first time last October when his Camaro tossed its cam. He started last and passed 16 cars and was working on the 2nd place 'vette in the video when the race ended. The Acura-engined Honda driver was incensed when he couldn't outbrake or out accelerate my 3400 lb. TA with its year-old tires. PS - This was his first race since open-heart surgery! He was amazed to find the car so driveable. I took the vid from a long distance with my smartphone because the Honda looked like he was going to hit my car for about 5 laps in this corner. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4ZTTOuPYPxY |
