Try to get someone to video your run even if just w/ a cell phone especially under braking. I think you may want to rethink your front springs then.That's what happened to me a few yrs ago when I had 500s in front. I immediatelly went to 650s and am now at 750s. Of course your shocks will also affect your spring rate choice.

I am going to try the sway bars this year and see how it goes.

Now comes the testing and tuning, that will be the hardest part.
Never mind getting the driver to do it correctly.....

1. front bar second to stiff, big year bar.
2. front bar full stuff, big rear bar
3. front bar full stiff, no rear bar.
etc..........
