My car is gonna be more of a daily driver/ weekend cruiser, and maybe the occasional autocross if I can find any that are close to me. I picked up a rear sway bar a while back, and it seems that I read that most autocrossers don't even have the rear swaybar hooked up. So, is a rear swaybar necessary on a mostly stock car? Would it be worth it to install it or should I find a new home for it, or is it mostly personal preference? Any advice appreciated !!!

Without the rear it has a great turn-in. Like I said, it could be just because of my setup. Yes, I know I have an opinion on everything, but if someone shows me the light when I am wrong I do admit my wrong (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif) |
