Cogent observation.

1/4" elliptic are great town cars for zipping in and out of traffic on
decent roads.

You'll loose some of the above mentioned
lower speed tossability for sure, but if
you want to stabilze that 1/4 elliptic
rear end with regards to highway speeds...

well, providing everything is tight and
as it should be back there and all else
being equal, install a front sway bar to
take out a bit of the oversteer "tendency"
(especially over uneven surfaces) by
introducing a little "understeer" to the
general set-up.
