Watts Link required?

I'm probably going to go with the ford racing adjustable handling package, is it worth it to go for a watts link or stick with an adjustable panhard bar?

Car is for fast road use, few track days and autocross per year.

I have a Cortex watts installed on my '13 500 and it's night-and-day better.

Check out some of the track videos in the Mustang Motorsports forum . . . those cars do not have watts link.

So no it it not "required" . . . . but it would be nice!

I can't speak to the watts link personally, as I've only had an adjustable panhard bar on my car. I've had no issues driving the car at the track without the watts link thus far. That said, everyone I know who has gone to the watts link claims it makes a "big difference"

I find the car is quite controllable in the track environment at the limit. I've only had one "landscaping" adventure in my car and it was a stupid reason, otherwise it's quite neutral and predictive.

I may eventually put in the watts link, but it's quite a ways down the list... after accusump, baffled oil pan, adjustable shocks/struts, and stiffer springs all around. I'm significantly out driving the Koni SRT.T's I've had on the past 2 seasons at this point
