Anyone know how front sway bar changes came to be allowed in stock class? I'm curious what the line of thinking was there.

Many cars (such as A1 VWs) came from the factory with no front bar, and therefore could really lean in corner and create a safety hazard (i have seen a Scirocco flip at Nationals). I believe they allowed additions and changes for that reason, but may be wrong. Just enjoy!Bill Clinton "It depends on what the meaning of the word 'is' is."

I've heard similar things. It was made to allow for cars with no front bar to add one.Matt W.

Wow. Thanks for the history lesson.
I wonder if the affected cars had a shiny-side-down problem on street tires, too, or only on sticky race tires.Joseph B.CS 82Ford fan that now has a garage full of red Mazdas.Comment

I remember seeing that Scirocco go over. IIRC, it was in the last run of the last heat of the last day. He went over diagonally over his left front corner. He wasn't being stupid either. Forbes Field offered lots of grip and localized elevation changes.Originally posted by claym View PostLast edited by slowautoxr; 03-28-2011, 06:03 PM.Charles

I have also seen a Ford Flippus (I mean Focus) ZX3 flip on concrete in Ozark.....Bill Clinton "It depends on what the meaning of the word 'is' is."

Whatever reason they give, we all know the rule is there because you can only watch so many s2000 spins before you decide "we have to stop the madness."Comment
