Coming back from TTU I had a question regarding the frame specs. We, like many other teams were required to add tubes to the car to have it comply with tech. This opened up another question for me with this " bend support rule." On the firewall you are required to have the LDB per rule B8.3.3.1, also with our firewall being the size and shape it is, our bend isn't at point S. Are we required to brace our bends to a named point? (A, B, or S)

I have seen teams with no LDB but only the bracing to the named points and only teams (like us) that have the LDB in the frame. I have attached a picture the rear end of our frame. Hopefully you guys have some insight.

I put the named points in the picture as well as our proposed solution if need be.

Thanks,
