It's not as big a deal as it sounds. Of course you can add a full x-member, and box the frame. This will make it stiffer then a new truck. They can flex quite a bit too depending on how they are measured.

But you can add a few hundred pounds of weight, and fairly big complications for the home builder. Or add greatly to one's debt. Don't forget the roll bar set up.

If I had a forklift, and motivation. I would do a basic X-member if I wanted to track it often enough. Then consider a basic 6 point cage depending on track rules. Or terminal velocity on the high end.

These days you can spend more money then you have the skills to drive. Which is cool if you have that kind of cash.
