Sorry to be an "ass" but this is the 21st post on this topic about sway bars, and I have yet to get an answer about SWAY BARS. I DO want opinions from people who actually auto-x ABOUT SWAY SETUP. I do value your opinion, and have taken alot of your advise to heart, however I still am going to put sways on my car and just want to know the best way to do it. Somehow, that doesn't seem so difficult to me... here's the three main questions that I'm looking for: 1) Do you have sway bars on YOUR car? Why/Why not? 2) What brand/size of sways do you have and how are they set? (if they are adjustable) 3) Just rear? Just front? Or both? Why? If you want to answer thanks, if not I'll find my answer elsewhere. Thank you so kindly once again for your time.

best way to do any sway bar is get adjustable ones and experiment. it's as simple as that. what may work for 1 person may not work for you.

Or if you want to stay in stock class (are you in stock?) I've heard of people taking off their front sway bar, but that's kind of ghetto-fabulous. Less understeer but the car is no stiffer.

Unfortunatly I'm not in the stock class, I built my car from a shell so didn't ever get to take it out in it's stock days. So, I will be getting my ass handed to me until I get used to this car on the track. Thanks again for the help guys.
