Signature Wheel & Cortex Racing GT500 Vertical Link Project

[gfcobra04]

GT500 Vertical Links produced in partnership with Cortex Racing are almost done! No more grinding down of the OEM vertical link when running our 18” Drag Pack

Huge thanks to all the Signature Wheel clients waiting patiently for these.

Lucky to work with talented minds like Cortex who can take parts from concept to reality.

Can we get a weight comparison between the stock piece and the new piece?

You bet. I will weigh them once I test fit mine.

They may end up weighing more but any increase would be negligible and wouldn't concern me. The benefit (beyond additional clearance) is reduction in bind and more precise articulation.

ON EDIT:
T, we talked about this. Filip has, without a doubt, one of the sharpest minds in the business. I have a lot of respect for the work he's done and continues to do. You choosing to work with him on this project was brilliant. This is a compact and simple piece (that hopefully leads to more) with a clean design. But what impresses me most is your fortitude, the difference between those that only dream and those that roll their sleeves up and get it done. So kudos to both of you and I sincerely hope you keep this up. Good work.

/Brief musical interlude
In case anyone is wondering what I listen to on my headphones with the volume cranked to 11, tonight, it's this.

Good news! Links are in and being assembled. Tomorrow we do a final test fit and install before Cortex can start shipping them out.

My jam buddy. My absolute favorite song from that album is “In my time of dying”.

Beautiful!

Yeah buddy! The GT500 vertical links I co-developed with @CorteXracing are finally done! Extra clearance for those Signature Wheel 18” rear drag pack wheels, less bind, less wheel hop, more strength, and better articulation.

Word on the street is some of the 18” Forgeline guys are ordering them too . It’s all about helping the community.

More pics and install info later.

 

[50 Deep]

We got more room on the 18” drag setups! Now let’s see some launches.

 

[50 Deep]

Cool install video. These have become a very popular modification.



We also found the Steeda model did not have adequate clearance at the barrel.

 

[erolivas]

Damn it. Why didn’t I see theses until now? I might need a set.

No worries brother. You can order them direct from Cortex. Or DM me to save a few bucks
