Harsh ride is perhaps a better term. But, yes, that's the gist.

I think 'harsh ride' is probably just as dodgy...

Hmmm........ yes, we're back into Finbar Saunders territory aren't we?? Gibber Gibber, Phweep Phweep!

KristMin,

The car I think you have seen was NNA our first K series traveller. This car was fitted with our stage I front and rear suspension system. The owner already had the anti roll bar fitted and was reluctant to no longer use it ,having paid for it. We ran the car with and without the roll bar and personally I thought it handled better without, which is why I do not fit them in conjunction with any of my kits. I feel that if the suspension/dampers are matched to the cars function then it abdicates the need for the roll bar.
When experimenting with uprated torsion bars we found that any more than a 50% upgrade would upset the ride of the car. This was tested on cars with and without other suspension upgrades. The problem we found was that the car began to pitch badly and would send the car into a pogo motion. If you haven't already upgraded your dampers then hold off the purchase of the torsion bars and do this first, then if you think you still need them purchase them then.

No double entrendres in this mail... Thanks for the explaination - I do believe everything now makes perfect sense! Jonathon - great, I knew there must have been some reason behind it but didn't know what - it's good to get my head around these things so I no longer have to end all of my emails with a confused look
