Re: Rally Cross

This seriously makes me want to ditch the coilovers and put better springs on my stock struts just so I can do some rallycross.

10"? Not enough. Also, ditch the sway bars, they just add weight.

we run slightly softer springs than we really should, the sways actually help. (actually if you look at some heavily prepped rally cars, such as CPD1, you'll find they use surprisingly stiff sway bar set-ups - and not in the stock location either)

Re: Rally Cross

Believe me, I know all about the importance of sway bars. I wouldn't even think about running a car that loosely sprung on tarmac without some thick bars. I'd just like to see what happens when someone does, is all.

But then again, I suppose that cage helps a bit with chassis stiffness.
