Is it attached to something where it is shown? or is your hand just holding it in a specific location?

It's what left of the connection to the front shocks.
This car has the RTD system F45 suspension on it however the front shocks have been replaced to stock shocks.
I bought this car recently and whom ever had it before me must had ripped them off the F45 shocks and just laid them out of the way. Both front are the same while the rear still have the F45 shock on. I'll be replacing all the shocks soon to Z06 type or something.
I suspect the car will be limited to 80mph in it' current configuration.
I'll have to buy the simulators as well.
I've been told there's a cheaper way to simulate it but,I haven't found that info here yet.
