I certainly understand the importance of track testing as it is my profession. However, it is not a necessary comparison when two drivers are involved. He gave his input and I don't believe he stated they will make you faster on track. Each individual driver will experience things and interpret them accordingly.

Suspension setup, including sway bars, are a tunable part of the chassis. It may make him faster or slower. It does not directly translate into everyone who tunes the chassis the same way will net the same results.

I appreciate the "track oriented" people on this forum. But I believe it should be done in a friendly manner. He is not required to provide any testing, graphs, or data logging. If you are interested in such things, fine. But do not place the burden of proof on the end user.

If he was selling or manufacturing sway bars and making claims that's another story.

Peace.
