Just my .02
    I agree since it just cost $255.00 but why do we try to make some things the same (i.e. power, tires, shocks, weight) but on others we don't. Why not let the Mustang have the torque arm and the coil overs like the Camaro does and put all the cars at thew same weight (except adjust for the aluminum block engines since so many think it's a big advantage)? Don't tell me it's because of money when you let $2500.00 big brakes in CMC. Why would the Mustang be any better than a Camaro just because we added the same things the Camaro has? What part or parts does any Camaro driver want on his car that a Mustang has. Why not make them as equal as possible. I would think if adding these parts make a Mustang faster, then the Camaro has an advantage since they already have them. I really don't have any idea if it would help at all. You certainly do not have to have these things to be able to win in CMC, we saw that when JK was winning everything. The torque arm would just cure this issue for me at very little cost. I also wonder why I can add a Panhard bar but not a torque arm?
