Default MWC Drag Bar anyone???

Anyone running these? I have a MWC 9' and need a bar. Seems like my rear; a good quality piece, ends look good and seem to have good bushings. Looks like it would help keep some of the noise down. Car is a street car and street driven, however is made to race straight....does have track trips hints why i need one...twist sucks,no road racing or anything. Anyone got one? Need some feeback.
Thanks guys!!!!

What do you do when you drive it on the street? Take it off or what?

I think you can leave it on and just unhook it on one end, but I hear of plenty of folks dding them.

Good to know....how many miles you put on yours you think in say....a year or so?
Car is NOT a DD. Might get like 2k a year...maybe. Depends on rain, etc. down here. Not to mention i really don't have much time for it anymore. Just seeing what you guys mean when you say they are fine. Some think a trip to a car show or something is "street driving". If i go somewhere in my car, 99.9% it is NOT trailered, only been on one 4 times....and 3 times was at the track when it broke.
No one is worried about the ends getting beat outta them?
Thanks guys.

I have had it for over a year. No issues on the street. No clanking or banging. Just about everything on my car is MWC now. Uppers, lowers, K, spindles, cage, fab 9, torque arm, panhard, rear lower control arms, WHen i get the car back i will put up more pics.
