I race an 88 SE at Road Atlanta, and I installed a set last spring. They are fantastic. I was able to take 8 seconds off my lap time the first day. The race car is lowered, and fitted with coil-over Konis on all four corners. At R.A. turn 12 follows a blind up hill turn at the top. Into a down hill kink entering turn 12. Prior to installing HPP sway bars I had to brake before actually entering turn 12. After installing and tuning the competition bars I now put the peddle on the floor at the top of the hill and leave it there until entering turn 1.
The car does a beautiful four wheel slide going through 12. Drifting out to the edge of the track then catching as I slowly unload the steering wheel.
The difference is like night and day.

Bump for what looks to be a great product.
I've got an 86GT with an 88 cradle under prep to go in so I may be the first to try out the bars with an 84-87 front and 88 rear...
88racer, I've ran Road Atlanta several times while attending the Panoz racing shool so I know exactly where on the track you are refering to. What was your sway bar setup prior to installing the HHP bars? Had you already added a rear bar such as an addco or were you running with the stock front bar with none in the back?

I let a professional driver judge the setup and he was very impressed: The car is very neutral, while both understeer and oversteer can be generated in different types of corners. Only lacking some horse power (170-180 plus NOS which I did not use on the track) but the car is capable of about 270-280 hp's according to the professional driver. Of course also brakes have to be done at that time: the front was smoking by the end of three laps!
Anyway, very satisfied with your bars: thanks again!
