100% agree. I have no doubts that the attention to detail & chasis preperation on his car adds to the rigidity and strength.
It is top notch, as is Tonys car as you would expect.
I guess the fact Oli uses MEF is testement to their quality. There arent many products that have been tested to the extent Tonys have. How many Rally stages? how many complete Rallys??
a lot thats for sure and more abuse than you or I are ever likely throw at our cars.
If the question were to be asked "is the main reason for the handling being as good a result of the chasis & cage prep?"
Then somehow id avoid answering it

Based on a number of road cars(RS Turbos & non caged)fitted with the same set up(or similar) minus the cage the answer is Yes they can. I know of a handfull that handle exceptionaly well. Just seems up until recently folks would rather spend pennies on making their car go faster rather than beter
