lol i just made a post on this like last night. panhard bar is more for road racing from what i have learned. and lower control arms help with raod racing as well, but they also help with draging.

The point of a panhard bar is to keep the body of the car centered over the rear axle, especially during hard cornering. It's made for guys who squeal their tires around every turn, but it can help during drag racing too.

the panhard bar+ torque arm is a much better drag suspension than the 4 link our cars have.
