Re: Torque Arm for 1.4 60ft? i did a 1.47 last year with my 3600lb M6 car and a Random tech arm. stock shocks, springs, swaybar, etc. after a few launches the bracket that holds the bushing was pretty molested though, and i ended up elongating the holes pretty bad where the rod ends attach to the rear bracket after about 2 months.
Re: Torque Arm for 1.4 60ft? by the way, as for stock torque arms <img border="0" alt="[jester]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_jest.gif" />
maybe ill dig mine out and post a pic of its nice banana shape. also have a few POS Mac TAs that decided to fold up and break in half, one of them on plain radials on the street on a 2nd gear shift <img border="0" alt="[barf]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_barf.gif" />
