Rear stabilizer

[Claus Vegener]

OK
I am not a guru on that an have only planned to do something.
Not tryed it
But got the opinion from several years on the list, that for the
200 the rear should be left as it is and reinforcing front with
stronger swaybar, strutbrace and camber plates for track use, was the way to go.
