quantitative analysis

[David K Yeung <dkyeung@juno.com>]

has anyone ever seen/done a REAL analysis of benefits gained from strut
tower braces?  they are so popular among the ricers yet I wonder if most
cars can generate enough grip to flex the chassis so much as to see any
real benefit from the added stiffness.  but maybe the real benefit is 
reducing the small amounts of flexing that over time will fatigue the
body/fender welds.
