I just got home and settled in, hopped online and got so excited reading all these great responses so far. I'll be able to get back to everyone tomorrow, but I just wanted to clarify my poor wording quick:
My post says "welded solid," when I should have just said "welded." A solid bar WOULD be obscenely heavy, and none of us want to add any more weight to this car! And at a certain thickness the bar is no longer the limiting factor, the chassis will be. For the record the bar we used on the prototype to test deflection was 14ga, and we'll test more once we settle on brackets, etc.
