Inquiring minds want to know. I know the X-brace is on my To-Do list (along with new stereo & CAI). I'd be interested in any impressions.

I particpated in part of the session. The conclusion (all seat of the pants) is that the Digrappa is noticeably tighter than all the others.

Rick,

Is this because it's carved from a single piece of steel, or aluminum, or whatever it's made of. The design itself doesn't very much from the others.

The discussion was more about whether ANY xbrace makes that much of a difference rather than just one manufacturer. UtahS2K and Gregstevens were duking it out, and Utah believes that the brace he has, the DiGrappa, makes a lot of difference (Greg wanted hard cold fact and numbers that it does, and no one has that yet).

I have the Spoon, and I believe that the car flexes less with it on that withuot it but that's just my SOP opinion.

Rick,

I still haven't gotten my X-brace. . . Have they all been shipped? If so, how long ago. . .

All braces have been shipped, and you should have an e-mail with the tracking info. If you do not PM me with your real name and I will get another e-mail to you
Thanks
