Agreed

But, wouldn't the stress of torque upon launch apply a lot of force on the rear bar? I am sure it is not as much as the DD duties, but I just don't know.

See, y'all... The Jaz is a quarner cat, not a quarter cat

Jazzer, the bar is designed for 1/4 mile applications, I'd only assume it would be able to hold up under hard accel. Not tryna pry here, just a subtle observation. Carry on corner carving kitty

not as much as you would think. if the springs aren't set up right it will and they will snap like twigs.

You'd actually be amazed at how much harsher of an animal dd is than the track, you run too soft a spring and taking corners will be a bit dangerous with the OS, too stiff and it'll snap it, question is, why take a chance on an expensive piece like that? Especially when you can run the stock one on the steet(assuming theres no major steering issues with running the stock one with your suspension) and swap it to the team z piece when you need to. Not really a quick/simple job but not unmanageable.

How often do you go to the track to even warrant running an anti roll bar? If you go as much as I did then sure, unhook one and cruise around... but for the occasional trip it doesnt seem worth the install
