Bin the front sway bar completely. With the entire corolla body removed it's going to be way too stiff for a motorkhana special and simply cause understeer.
This special is only intended for fun, rather than really serious competition, as at 75 years I can no longer turn my head around to see well in reverse. However looking at current state of the art fwd m/k specials you are right, because I cannot see a front sway bar on any of them. But I have plenty of cockpit length within the minimum wheelbase to allow the firewall behind the front sway bar (as shown), so I will remove it as you suggest, but keep it as an option if I ever want to try the car with it. Thanks for your advice.
@@megamonkey56 Phil East & I started running in motorkhanas together in the Mini Car Club of NSW back in the seventies! I will sort the car at Ringwood, then test myself at my old WAC hunting grounds. I actually won the outright Newcastle Area District Motorsports m/k championship once. I could not count how many times I ate the dust there!
Get a rear sway bar Bill... from a truck... usually straight across where the hump is
Great. Love the progress on this build
woohoo first comment! Thank you for your videos and cheers from Texas!
Enjoyed your take on it though
