New SCCA Ruling

The November Fastrack added the following rule changes for ST and Street Prepared:
Change 15.2.C to read as follows:

“C. Strut bars (see Section 12) are permitted with all types of suspension, subject to the following constraints:

1. A two-point strut bar may be added, removed, modified, or substituted, but only with another two-point strut bar.

2. A triangulated strut bar may be removed, modified, or substituted; substitution may be with either a triangulated or a two-point strut bar. The connection to the chassis (i.e. firewall) must be in the standard location.

3. Lower suspension braces must be attached to the lower suspension pickup point locations on the chassis within 2 inches in any direction of the actual suspension attachment to the chassis.4. Except for standard parts, no connections to other components are permitted.

Additional holes may be drilled for mounting bolts. Interior trim panels may be modified to allow installation of strut bars. Holes or slots may be no larger than necessary and may serve no other purpose. This does not permit any modifications to the frame or unibody beyond the allowed mounting holes.”
This means that you can now run a "twin sub frame bar" mounted between the two lower control arm mounts up front (see here) Twin Sub Frame Bar - $129.99 : Rebel Auto Worxs.ca

hmm. First time I've seen this part. I'm sure it makes the car fell better but, would feeling better be worth the few extra pounds?
