When my youngest son started running a micro I made sure to get a coil front car due to preference. At the time, we were the only coil front micro in our area, everyone was running 4 bar cars. Some told us we will never be competitive with a coil car, now there are many running coil front cars.

The only 4 bar car we have run was our nonwing sprint car. I didnt really find alot of difference to be honest. Whether coil or torsion, it still comes down to understanding how, where, and when the weight transfers.
Agree, understanding weight transfer is key,
