New torque arm or not?

I was wondering why companies (i think spohn is one) claim that their torque arm allows better grip while accelerating through a turn. Wouldn't it just affect straight line acceleration?

Re: New torque arm or not?

yes it does help. anything with less flex than the stocker will improve straight-line traction and all-round traction
