IMHO, chassis stiffening is absolutely required with high horsepower and fat tires.
That is the first time ever that I've heard that chassis stiffening is not needed.
No experiment needed to determine why you got cracks. Your car is clearly flexing or else your paint would not crack.
I read posts where a member was driving behind a Pantera and could see the side gaps of the rear decklid clearly changing as the car went around corners. No more movement after the owner stiffened the chassis.
Just my 2 cents.

Well yyou didn't read what I wrote. I said the car cracked in the paint never having been moved from the spot where it was painted.

It wasn't rolled, it wasn't run, it didn't do anything.

Braces wouild not have changed that in my opinion, and that's all that I said.
