I'm pretty sure I understand what a sway bar does, how it works, and why,

That's the 'most stoopidest' thing I've ever heard, and I deal with some

Ummm.... HOW many other ways are there to increase oversteer???

Interesting indeed.
I guess it saves on weight as well, and when you're building a race car.....

Thanks Dave.
