Quick Question: Subframe connectors- WHY didn't they do this from the factory?

Grassy,

Ron Root, a factory-backed Drag Racer who routinely ran in Modified/Production.

This 'D/MP' Dart weighed in approximately +125 lbs. heavier than a typical factory line Dart.

As a kid I didn't watch much drag racing..I was into circuit (no oval) racing and rallying..
