Sway bar and lower kits from durablue. Flat track tires. There are few out there. Hoosiers are expensive but worth it but you can comprimise for a cheaper tire that will probably work just as well.

The lowering kit brings the center of gravity down so you don't traction roll so easy. The lowering kits are bolt ons they take little time to install and take off. They just relocate the shock mounts on the chassis. You don't need to lower but I wouldn't try to run with the big guys if you don't

Yes, you also need a wider quad as well. Instead of wider a-arms, buy spacers for the front and back axles. That will save you lots of money. For your info, the sway-bars = $300.00, lowering kit = $150.00 (front & back), spacers = $150.00 (front & back), and tires = $350.00 thru $500.00 (front & back). I'm also looking into flat track racing, but I need some money. I hope the mentioned info helped.
