At the risk of sounding like a rice boy, I have to say that the wheelie bar
is used to limit the front-rear transfer of weight during hard accel. They
went through several sets of bars before they got it right. I subscribe to
Sport Compact Car and remember reading an article about it. Like it or not,
these guys are as serious about performance as anybody else. More serious
if you look at the cost for parts compared to American iron hot-rods. I
just wish they'd get tired of all the body-kits and clear lenses. Of
course, that's just a taste issue.

BTW, I came to the Dakota by way of a wrecked Nissan 240sx. I'm waiting for
my insurance to go back down before I get back to the imports. Kinda
looking at the 4door Integras now. I like the stealth-type look for my
performance vehicles. Not that I wouldn't drive the wheels off a Viper if
somebody gave me one. :)
