Sign me up Sam! Any idea on how quick of a turnaround? Do you think you would have it to market within this year?

More progress... I officially have a part number (still waiting on final pricing, etc). 8525. I even put it up on the site, though price and pics aren't there. http://www.stranoparts.com/partdetai...234&ModelID=37

dennyfok,

You can either send me your name and phone number and I'll add you to the list, or you can place an order at the link I posted in my last response (don't worry about the lack of price it's more of a pre-order thing as my website doesn't take payment anyway).

Sam,

Do you think the bar would benefit RTR CS? That is what I plan on running next year and I was wondering what your thoughts are. I would probably be running Star Specs or R-S3's.

Any inputs/thoughts would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

I have been running in RTR CS with 215 RS3s and even with toe in out back, I have a lot of oversteer still. I dont want to litter Sam's bar thread with more CS/RTR talk so look for my posts in about 4 other CS or RTR or Alignment threads and reply there if you want more info on my setup.

Long story, yes, front bar is needed if you drive hard enough to be competitive.

Rear? You mean front, right?
