Just thought i'd throw this one out to you. In what racing situations/conditions would you run your buggies without a rear stabilizer??

It would increase rear chassis roll, and it would produce more rear traction with the loss of some front traction and steering. If your spinning out a lot on corners(oversteer) then that is when you would try removing it or going with a thinner one.
