I thought I'd share these pics. I never believed that a sway-bar would break. Anyone else seen this before?

Good to see you back on track, Shane. I'm jealous! Your driving has seriously improved over the years.

The sway bar is impressive. I bet Chris, as usual, hit the nail on the head. Think how much abuse that bar has seen at Sebring over the years, and with that drop-off in T1, it's probably what did it in. Wear and tear, I guess.
