I am interested to know if everyone who has a Lola T540 uses the lower diagonal brace between the gearbox and the lower rear cross member.
I did look at Steve Beeler's Lola at the 50th last weekend and noticed that he uses one. I was wondering if anyone has taken it off and had any issues without it.
The reason I ask is I was told by a fellow Lola owner that he hasn't used it in years and he's had no problems running without it. I recently rebuilt my Lola, didn't use the brace, and have all kinds of issues with the front motor mounts coming loose.
Wondering if there is a connection there...pardon the pun!
Thanks
