    Going to the track on Monday to try out the new custom anti-roll bar on my 3.2 Mondial.

    Will report next week.

    I am wildly interested - Is this front or rear, bigger or smaller?

    Rear - larger (19MM) - I'll try to get some photos this weekend as well.

    Made/installed by Lee Hurley at Hesco here in Birmingham - www.hesco.us

    What kind of price do they come out at. The suspension will be one of the next jobs to be done soon.

    Correct:)

    I will be replacing all the bushes and having the A arms powder coated and would possibly get this done at the same time (price pending). My shocks are ok at the mo but I would like to upgrade to qa1's or similar lightweight shocks & thinner springs.

    Do you have a price what they cost you?

    I can't tell you what Lee would charge anyone else for adding the sway bar - best contact him directly at [email protected]

    I was impressed with how the car drove at the track yesterday. I don't have any empirical data to support the fact, but it seemed to go around the corners better and faster - and the tire wear was not as bad either - so all in all, I was pleased. The car is so well balanced that it is not hard to correct most small mistakes - one small off track excursion during the day as a result of accidentallly putting a wheel off just before a hairturn.
