The civic has been doing well for local autocross events since I stopped driving and sold my Miata. 
 

A big rear sway bar and some konis is the limit of suspension mods for street class. 
 

Typical front wheel drive cornering attitude. 

However, the sway bar mounts are being asked to do a lot more than intended. 

Front ball joints are shot too.

I've been doing really well with the car, beat a good driver in a Fiesta ST and raw timed the winners of 11 other classes at the last event. 
 

Can't wait to see how it turns at the next event.

I was wondering if someone made reinforcement plates.
