Hpjunky, is this generally true for all of the drag-race antisway/antiroll bars?

well ya if you add this bar alone with the stock swaybar its going to get alot less traction around corners on thew rear wheels. i wouldn't even recomend this matched with a front swaybar. Drag Antisway bars are not meant for corner carving, and should not be used on a daily driver. if you want to hook, get some good tires, LCAs, LCA relocation brackets, and a TA.

This is the same thing people tell me about not having a front sway bar. The first mod i did to my car was take the front sway bar off. I live on curvy country roads and i have no problems what so ever with handling.

This thread is directed towards drag racing, not autocross type driving.

I've got that bar on my car and I will tell you that the car comes out of the hole straight and level, and I drive on the street with it all the time....

I also have a spool in the 9" so I can not tell you mutch about the handling of just the bar....

I dont take curvy roads to fast...
