 Anti roll bar's Looking at David L's race car this weekend I noticed he has an anti roll bar fitted - nice piece of KAD kit. According to David it makes quite a bit of difference, this was a view also expressed by Ian Daniels at Classic Car Engineering who set my car up a few weeks back i.e. that I should fit one as it will help corner speed.
Anybody else have experience they would care to share............

Re: Anti roll bar's Fitted to the front i take it?
I have done some calcs and looks promising on paper, i do keep looking at some of the mini kits but keep thinking i could do something a little better suited.

Re: Anti roll bar's It looks very much like it, a KAD product. It made quite a difference to my car and was easy to fit - except for the brackets for the cooling pipes put on by the previous owner which of course as luck would have it were right in the way.
