Any thought to adding gussets to the chassis or boxing in the control arms?

[@mgmidget-thebirthofaraceca4349]

interesting thought. not yet as im thinking fast road so std chassis should cope well. I have a friend who races a sprite (1380 140hp) and other than the roll cage there is little in the way of strengthening other than a supporting top wishbone to help the loads on the lever damper. As i wont be doing flat out 40 min races im going to leave that for now
