Additionally, just because the Hotckis bar is the largest available "off the shelf" bar does not make it the "largest bar". Various race teams have produced custom bars that are even larger.

In conjunction with stiffer spring rates.
I didn't say the need to be done together, but going larger than necessary
without the use of a spring change isn't the best balancing solution.
And most custom bars will most likely include an adjustable blade type arm with significantly greater range of stiffness, unlike a fixed arm with different positioning holes. I don't think i've ever seen a race team use stock coilovers with a large custom ASB. It would defeat the purpose and just cause wheel jacking through every turn.
