I am sure this has been discussed many times before so please feel free to point me towards a previous thread if there is one. I did search quickly but failed to answer my curiosity.
CHAINS:
Any recommendations on type and brand for race car applications?
LINKS:
Quick release or riveted?
My inkling is that the quick release are too good to be true and will be weaker than the riveted option. You never get anything for nothing as they say. However last night I stumbled across and picture of a literally half naked Phoenix Raceworks beauty and low and behold on the chain the there was a quick release link. The picture was of a new build so perhaps the quick link was just there to ease the continual assembly and reassembly required at that stage whilst trial fitting all the new parts. Perhaps it was never intended to race like that.
What's your opinions and experiences?
