Body Rigidity Improvement. This is the one part i'm yet to test because it can't be reversed and I haven't run in and tuned two cars the same to test, plus it would be pretty difficult to see a difference it is was very minimal.

I'm just interested to hear some tuners' opinions of this part and if it has any use even if it is only tenths, as that's as far off most times I am. I would guess it should help AWD but it is just a game afterall and anything could work, wink wink.👍

You wont see a difference even in cirquits
Its good for not letting chassis be awfull!!!

That's basically it.. I like to think of it as a wasted feature.. Much like horns -.-
 
Round a track it makes a hell of a difference, just that you only notice it from certain things. I race on a G27 and I can say for sure it makes a difference, the difference it makes could also be applied to drag racing only it will most likely not make much difference if any at all.

Only for powerless cars that add a lot of power make a difference and especialy for old cars which have no rigidity from factory back then!!!
 
Go run twenty laps of any track with and without it in any car, then tell me which has more tire left. Tire wear may not seem like a big deal in a drag tune but there's more to it than meets the eye.

20 laps is too long, driving styles are never THAT consistent, people get tired, bored, try new ideas, or just have human error. So saying tire wear isn't really going to prove much.

Not attacking, just saying
 
Alright, go run one lap of nurburgring and tell me which one uses more tire. Even someone barely consistent who has done this will know that it improves tire wear at least two-fold. Either way it was an example, and if you were to do it in the example which I gave which using Daytona Speedway was based off my months of NASCAR tuning experience you'd know that you can be 0.2 off the same time consistently until you run out of tires, skill or not. Those tires are not going to last half as long as a car with it, but that's about all i'm going to say on the matter, I just asked if people used it and their opinions, let's keep it to that.
 
In drag lobbies tire wear is usually off, but I'm gonna try it on one of my veyrons for those route x Veyron races where my tires are usually shot by the end of lap 2 lol
 
Chassis rigidity is for cornering. Since there is no cornering in drag racing, there is no use for it. Save yourself 20k.

I have to disagree. I am that consistent! (If you count being a horrible driver lap after lap as being consistent. :lol:)

Yep. I can guarantee that I will always go off on the same corner lap after lap. And Kenny, you keen for a race soon :)

I got one of those zero radius turn lawnmowers you drive with the handles. It take corners real good. :lol:

Edit: I'll be on in a few hours or so. Get your john deer ready. I'm just getting home. Had a pretty busy day today.
