autox torque arm?

what torque arm/kit are people running for autox applications? Most torque arms I see seemed to be based for drag applications. do torque arms not really help with autox? what about LCA and panhard bars? Thanks.

i know that karl hunter, who has possible the best handling 3rdgen in North America runs a spohn TA.

panhard will def. help handling. lcas will also.

for auto-x you will want to check on rules with what aftermarket peices you can run.

A torque arm is not a must-have for autox. I've run cars with and without aftermarket arms. When I do use them, mostly on 4th gens to help with the brake hop, we run Random Tech arms. We do have a Random arm on the '82 Z28 I won the Solo2 National Championship with in E-Street Prepared.
