As a relative newbie to the sport, here's one opinion with regard to
suspension setups in Stock classes:
It appears to me that those people using gee-whiz shock setups are doing so
primarily to control body roll.
Perhaps another way to allow participants a similar level of body roll
control, with much less ca$h investment, would be to allow any rear antisway
bar.
Will it stop some people from dropping $5000 on struts and shocks? No. In
fact, I think there will be people spending $5500 on struts, shocks, and a
super gee-whiz 48-way adjustable rear sway bar.
BUT: It allows the regular once-a-month competitor to control body roll and
try to move a stock car from pushing to more neutral handling, without
dropping $$$ on super-struts.
Just my $.02
