can someone explain to me the purpose of wheelie bars on a fwd car? I'm sure they serve a purpose, otherwise they would only add weight.

vehicle ways 2000lbs
EST HP is about 1400 or so

not sure how you are knowledge wise in racing
but without those bars, his front wheels aren't staying on the ground
they are to keep the wheels from popping up and skipping
also keeps the car somewhat in control

I guess so, but I mean, you aren't gonna pop a wheelie in a fwd car, so when are they even gonna touch the ground?

I guess I can see that. I mean, the front end does still buck up a bit under alot of horsepower.

are wheelie bars street legal?
