Default Does anyone run a TI in NASA GTS ?

Looking for others who run or have run a TI in NASA GTS class. Need to pick your brain for some information.

There was a GTS car for sale on here several years ago. Not sure if he ever sold it but it was extensively built. Can't say that I've seen any ti racecars at the NASA events I've been at.

All the years I have gone to NASA MID ATLANTIC, I have never seen a TI either. Kinda of why I am building one.
Thank you link. Rear cage tie in and raising rear subframe was what I was looking for.

Never touched the subframe on mine beyond urethane mounts. I never saw one in Florida and combo events with Southeast. I ran mine in tte with the stock motor.

My roll bar has two pads welded into the shock tower mount. With a bar going between those two pads. The bars coming down from the roll bar hoop meet that cross bar at the very outermost edge where they coul still 360 weld it, and then there are two very short bars coming straight down to the frame rail. Not sure it is the best design, or the safest, but the rear end was definitely stiff.
