Which hole do I use?
#1

I'm talking about the rear M030 bar guys...................

I installed the M030 bars over the weekend. I set the rear bar in the middle hole. In the searches, I read if you use the longest outboard hole you in effect weaken the bar and the body will roll a bit more. The inner most hole would make the bar effectively shorter and would stiffen it for less roll. Couldn't get the damn bolts loose for the Koni's back there so I'm letting them soak with WD40 for this week before I try again.

Am I right? I have a points Autocross this weekend so I want to have them at the best position.

In my experience driving on street only, I found that I had understeer or oversteer, depending on where I set the bar. I just can't remember which was which...

Use the inner hole to stiffen the bar which will move the handling balance toward more oversteer - probably what you want for Autocross. Use the outer hole to soften the bar and give you less oversteer.

yep, inner hole = stiffer. I have a lindsey racing rear bar, which is a clone of the M030 bar with the addition of 2 extra holes, 1 stiffer, 1 softer. Mine is set to the stiffest setting.

most guys run in the middle hole, as the shortest generally provides too much oversteer
