[iamkeviinv2]

You guys should really check out tbperformanceproducts.com for any bracing needs you may have! go to their ford fiesta section and they have some pretty good quality stuff! been content with my braces and have proven effective at the track!!!

What we really need is a front crash bar replacement.

I have had TB's stage 3 set on my FiST for over a year now.
I even had it on my '11 SES for two years before that.
I am very happy with the way it all works.

Any pictures of these on your car?

This is a prototype set that was built.
The production set is almost the same.

How much weight did that main brace drop? I'm a little skeptical about their claim of dropping ~2 seconds off their lap time..

Laps times and track times have a lot of variables either way, but I would like to know the weight of both stock and aftermarket center braces.

 

[D1JL]

I can't tell you about lap times as I don't race my car.
I drive open track events only for fun.
Using a transponder and keeping track of time could imply that you ARE racing.
If an incident were to happen on the track, your insurance company could cancel you.

It's my car he's talking about. He put the braces on my car. And it's my lap times he's talking about. Yeah there are a lot of variables to racing not just the braces but they make the car feel a lot more stable mid turns and inspires you to take them faster and let's you know the true limits of grip that your car has.

 

[D1JL]

I can agree with that.

Yeah! Knowing your cars true limit will help you go 3mph fast here, take a better line through there, more exiting speed from a sweeper, and those seconds do add up.
