Thanks!

I think if you have camber plates you are just as unlikely, if not more unlikely, to mushroom the towers than with the top M7 plates.

I managed to mushroom my towers. fitting camber plates and strut brace on top pulled them almost straight again.

Got it, installed it, LUV it. You can grab the middle of the brace and shake the whole car with it... and the brace doesn't flex noticeably. While that's not a scientific study of the effect on handling, it's still pretty impressive.

And it looks like part of an Autobot.

Paul, that does at least look sexy.

Be sure to measure the difference on the Dragon.

Unpossible to go any faster on the Dragon... would be sucked into a black hole. Or something.
