Anti-roll bar

[vrooom]

Hiya.

Would anti-roll bar any good for road going mini? as I would like to ride flat on the corner. thinking of one in front, and one in the back.

Is it worth the trouble ?

Jay, in a word 'No'.
They really are for racing, sprinting and hill climbing. On the road it is difficult to set-up the suspension so that they are any sort of advantage. They can make the car very 'twitchy'. I've never liked driving with them.
The best thing to do is to set up the suspension very accurately with the caster, camber and toe-in on the front set correctly and the back set to absolutely NO positive camber and rear wheel toe-in at 0.125".
Use hard suspension bushes and 1.5 deg neg camber bottom arms.
With new Gas Spax dampers set to about 3 clicks you should find the car will be great and ideal for fast road driving.
I hope this helps.
