Don't forget too that when BL added the swing-spring they also increased the stiffness of the front (anti)sway bar. It principle this combination should solve the tuck-under problem but increase understeer, thus decreasing the ultimate lateral g's you can obtain. ==AM== As I understand it, the much lower roll resistance in the rear due to the swing spring created a tendency towards OVERSTEER, for which the fatter front anti-sway bar compensated. Overall, I don't think understeer increased compared to the earlier cars. --Andy Mace *Mrs Irrelevant: Oh, is it a jet? *Man: Well, no ...
