Here's a picture I found from the track day. As you can see the car still leans a fair amount. I'm investigating a bigger sway bar for the front as a possibility for the future.

Are these the 2 sway bars under the car your speaking off?

What about designing a strut bar that goes under the hood? Shouldn't be hard to make and it will limit body roll.

Nah, more like $16.00. I buy in bulk at Home Depot. It takes a little more than 2 rolls.

A strut bar is a possibility in the future. I have a contact that I'm told can fabricate just about anything.

I haven't spoken to him yet. He built the roll cage and headers for a friend of mine that races an E30 BMW. Be does beautiful work. I'll meet up with him later than sooner. Right now I'm not making money working so things are moving slowly for me. I still can't believe I spent the funds on the K&W's. It helps being closer to death than birth. If and when I have something made, I'll get some copies for the chosen few.
