Yes it does...particularly front to back bending. plastic brace has lots of movement front to back when you flex it. All gone with carbon one fitted.

Not done enough testing yet to decide if it's a benefit or not...got faster laps times with it fitted, but not sure as yet whether that was the brace or the track being faster. Was run indoors on carpet.
