Default Madman race TA

anybody who has one or has seen it, how low does it really hang down? trying to decide if there is still enough ground clearance left to make it worth running the race arm instead of the stock eliminator arm which has less adjustability. im not afraid to have it hanging down some, but no good if its lower than my dual flowmaster 2 chambers hang down

The new generation T/A does not hang any lower than your Y pipe. I have a 2001 SS with this kit on it and I havent had any ground clearance probs. Steve when didyou buy your unit???

by the new generation TA, do you mean the SE arm or is it a new version of the race arm? does it still offer the adjustability of the older setup? thanks <img src="gr_stretch.gif" border="0">

Yes the RACE version. We learn everytime we go to the track. The part that has everyone SO worried we have found normally isnt used so we are not putting it in the RACE unit.
