That matches fairly well with my experience with my '76 Spitfire dedicated autocross car. With the locked diff the car only handled correctly at speed and driven fairly agressively. The previous own

I agree with all you saying but driving a car hard does overuse the tires. They will give up early and then lap time drops. So driving without a rear sway bar and a welded diff would be good for pra

In a TR-4, solid axle, in my experience the use of a rear bar depends on the type of limited slip diff as well as spring rates. Plus, if you've improved the front suspension geometry everything chang

That could make the difference....stiff springs. I have the softest springrates of our group to have control at the bumpy Nordschleife track. I am always amazed about the difference how the same type

We experimented with Z-Bars back in the 60's but quit when we determined that the SCCA had declared that they were illegal on Spits. I suspect that they do work but we never got as far as actually te

Somewhere in my home files I have a dissertation on Z-bars for Spits and the conclusion (as I recall) was that they were inappropriate for Spits and are only effective on FV's because they do somethi

That's the fun part, feeling like you can dance with the car. When a car is oversprung and not handling right you just can't do that. Peyote's big secret is how well it dances. If someone wants to ge
