    Handling for Audi Quattros

    Greg, you mentioned 'head toss' earlier as it was related to stiffer roll bars. I've noticed that there is a bit of head toss now that I've fitted the stiffer rear bar. Is this fixable by fitting softer springs, or is it only fixable by reducing the size of the rear bar? I actually have a...
