Will the new brace be available at the parts shop at Cleveland? If not, can you add one to my order that you are sending out tomorrow, Jason?

For Stock its the Parma Speed 8 (the normal one not the "HD version).

For Mod its the Protoform Speed 12 (the normal one not the "B" version) or a Parma Speed 8HD.

THX Adrian, why not the HD version?
Looking at the description again... The HD is 178 wide while the "normal" one is 171.....

The Speed 12 and HD are high downforce bodies. This is not ideal with the limited power of a stock motor. The Speed 12B and the Speed 8 have less down force and allow the car to be more free in the corners.
