wutangRS...HT Racing made it for me as a favour...Its not something they want to do to be honest...and it requires a fair bit of Bulkhead mods to fit.

That bracket attaching the pedal box mount to the inner wing is a genius idea!

That should help stop any flex, and give it some real strength - great idea
