      ^ To get that oversteer balance without buying an expensive aftermarket rear bar, I suppose? Instead of adding to the rear, take from the front? . I've seen full-on race car RSXs with a stock ITR front bar, but a monster bar in the rear. He does seem to be going for an off-road rally car, so maybe the lack of a bar up front will make for a smoother ride over rapid tiny bumps, I don't know.

      Not sure what the "fiery death" in the future plans is all about, either...

        Yes, front SB delete to balance against the back. It would be nice to get something beefy in the back and then I could probably re-install the front. For now, the car balances pretty well, with just a slight tendency towards oversteer.

        This is a good article https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/articles/lean-less/
