Spent another nice day up in Santa Rosa for some tire wear and fun Reciently installed MMRSB-4 sway bar was certainly an improvement, but would have been nice had one of the bolts not fallen out. I seem to have sway bar trouble up at this place I had meant to install some back-up nuts, but hadn't gotten around to it, so will do so today
Looks pretty awesome! How'd the swaybar help with the understeer? I need to get my subframes in and new wheels/tired before i can start doing some autocross...

Sway bar performed quite well, thank you!, as can be seen in the following picture (note feathers hanging on rear-view mirror):
This during the first or second run and prior to one of the bolts of my new sway bar actually falling out...
The results of said missing bolt can be seen below just before I checked to see what up:
Now to be fair, I was really into the throttle in 3rd at this point and a bit short of WOT through this section. I had planned to install some backing nuts on the bolts, but was going to do it the next day. Turns out I DID install backing nuts on it the next day, but needed a new bolt too I really cannot blame this body roll soley on my missing bolt, but sure it contributed to a degree. I decided to upgrade all the bolts to grade 8 and nylock backing nuts so this won't happen again. This pic was about 20' from the timers so just laying into it hard at this point.
What a blast to drive with such aggression and not get a ticket or the finger
Wow that looks like a blast! Im definitely convinced on going the corner carving route. And those are some great pics. Looks like the sway bar is a worthy investment.

Driving my car in the manner in which I had built it is as much fun as I can have with my clothes on
I absolutely fell completely in love with the corner way back in HS days driving my '72 Vega:
I LOVED that car, and at the time of this picture, was completely incapable of even considering the day I might sell it. I put $5500 into it and sold it for $850 and was like money I NEVER had!
Looks like a pretty good course. I cannot wait to get back out for another auto x in two weeks. We had about 1.5 months without them. I only had the one track event where I blew the head gasket.
Will be heading back up to the same site for 2 or 3 more events, hopefully. I have now added a link to all my vids in my sig, as I just cannot stop my ego-maniacal ways
