Now look what you've done - posting these controversial questions!

Had my kart up on a chassis table yesterday, and although I didn't have time to do a test with proper measurements the sidepod brackets do appear to contribute to torsional stiffness in small but noticeable way. Same for the back bumper. Didn't try the front one. I'll get round to doing a full test with numbers at some point.

Whether it will stop the back end hopping is another question.
