T1 bars are mandated by a series, not necessarily best for your application. I know, they have been race tested..................
I have been testing some Pfadt bars on my roadcourse car , and have been very happy with them . I am using the "pfadty" front bar instead of their standard front and works very well with my cars set-up (really fast). Always good to not be stuck with a given set-up, if elements change immediately, you are at a new venue, or just feel like provoking a change. Additionally as you have seen, Aaron's components are very high quality.
I am satisfied with them , even with the extra cost .................

Thanx for the quick replies...I'm looking forward to his new bushing option...we use he same quality aluminum on our ladders for our fire trucks! I like to have options and of course the weight loss.

I sat with Erin, his wife, Mom and Dad at the dinner Saturday night at Spring Mountain and went through it all with him.
Once he gets his new shipment I am on line for the sways and coil overs for my c6 Z51. I rode in his and loved the way the car felt. Low to the ground, independent responsive feel and even though she was low, the shocks had full travel which was a smooth, responsive ride. Not jarring or wild.
BTW, sorry I didnt get a chance to meet you, I was hanging out near Ole's spot. I have seen your car at Seans and that suckah is gonna be very nice.
Congrats.

I now (too some degree) understand "itchy"
My first time on the track and I am going insane. Ole spent some time with me and went around the track with a lead follow/follow lead setup on our second day out with less folks on the track.
I learned tons of info from that. For example, when they wave a black flag at both of you, it means "YOUR HAVING WAY TOO MUCH FUN !!!!"

Hey LAPI:
I really liked you old Avatar picture of your license plate that says "WIFE MAD."
However, your new one is even better now that you are a deflowered track veteran!!!

Well, I figured either "keep her mad" or keep her happy.
Happy goes along way for future mods and tires.

Joel your getting anorexic with the car T-1 is hollow so I doubt weight difference would be significant.

A couple of lbs here, a few more there, and I won't have to diet to go
deeper into the turns.
