My overall analysis of the Hellwig bars.... HUGE improvement. If all you have is the stock 7/8" front bar and worn out bushings you would be in for a shock changing out to this stuff. I haven't used anything but the street setting yet either. The 3 holes in the bar ends are for street, drag, and road race settings. The street being the furthest hole out and being the softest setting. Then drag setting in the middle and road race at the end.

Anyhow the rear bar was a drastic improvement. It keeps the ass end of the car from dipping and it seemed to plant the rear tires in hard turns. I took a 25 MPH cloverleaf at what felt like 45+mph {my speedo is broke so im guessing} without any issue. The seat was barely holding me in. I went out in the country took a corner hard and power slid the car... it didn't dip or feel loose in the back at all. It seems to have a lot more control and the rear of the car doesn't have that boat like feeling. Its straight and controlled. I would recommend these to anyone.

I'm still waiting on my Currie Currectrac Upper and Lower RCA's, I'm hoping to see them this week. I should have my Eaton Trutrac in the mail Monday and I think ill be ordering the SPC upper and lower A-Arms and springs very soon to complete the SC&C stage II chassis. I seriously can't believe how gratifying chassis mods are. It makes the car so much more fun to drive....
