Predicting handling characteristics

I calculated the front roll stiffness bias, a measure of propensity for understeer, for a variety of different front and rear sway bar diameters and put them in the attached table. Many factors are not taken into account, but the table shows general trends that some may find useful for selecting certain swaybar setups. Enjoy!

Hey, man, I'm just spreading the love! However, I need additional product info to make the table more useful.
