Rocky, we just put that very one on our new car. It is a nice piece.

Stupid Question Time:~~~~~
Having never driven a hand brake car, what is the advantage over a foot brake? Is it just a master cyl. location deal or is there more to it than that?

pro, I'm not sure but I think they started using hand brakes because there isn't room for a foot brake and clutch pedal in open wheel cars.

I figured it might have somethin' to do with limited space. Master cyl, linkage, foot travel or "D" all of the above. Thanks Rocky.

Rapid, Is that mounting stud a solid piece or is it made from tubing?

Rocky, it is a solid chunk, you mill it off where you want it to fit the chassis tube.
