I don't mind understeer since I don't race or autox. It's fun to get the tires to complain a little once in a while. I guess not having it would be ideal, but anyway. Good find I guess, but if it's illegal for the track, (for safety reasons) I don't think I would want it.

Why would it be illegal for the track?

Sorry I guess I meant certain autocross classes. Also it sort of seems like a wonder drug if you get my meaning... Doesn't it seem like it might be a little questionalble in the safety department?

That bar is hollow, so any comparisons to conventional solid bars based merely on outer diameter are completely meaningless. It's a totally different animal. The only logical comparison data would be actual torsional stiffness across the two ends of the swaybar, which of course we don't have.
