Not that bad honestly. People have been mid 170s there in cars like mine and stop fine. Parachute helps a ton.

Hey that's awesome...Questions??? hmm..sure, got a pile of them...pretty much all F/M/J-body specific stuff though.

Alright, here is the 1st one: what did you do (if anything) to stiffen up the chassis? I'm thinking frame ties, rollcage I suppose...can you show pics of the body specific fabrication required?

The goal for my '81 coupe is to be a pretty serious car, it will require that level of support, so anything I can look at today that will make this task easier is very welcome!
