Excellent observation. Just upgrade the pads and rotors.

Vented hood is a Boss 302S part.

So, of the two Boss race cars I looked at this weekend, one had a skinny rear swaybar about as thick as my thumb and the other didn't have a rear swaybar at all. Both had front swaybars about as thick as my forearm.

I could be wrong, but I don't think so. It's considered aero. And it's not allowed. That's why it doesn't get a splitter either

some teams run a small swaybar, some don't. What I'd like to know (and will look closer next time I get a good look at the cars) is what spring rates they run in the rears. Just seems like the car would be super-push without one there unless the wheel rates were still pretty high, and its pretty obvious just watching that those cars really don't push at all.

Sounds about right. According to the p/n shown in the photos, the rear springs are 400 lbs.
