I know the McLaren has active suspension. I'm not that ignorant, but its not the first car to have it, but it is one of the first cars to have literally no roll bars.

As i stated before, I don't think its changing ride quality. Lets just throw that whole sentence out cuz thats not what I'm getting out.

But roll bars aren't the only things that reduce body roll... Your shocks, springs, and even you're allignment change body roll. Along with weight distribution, and actually chassi stiffness.

If you made your spring rates stiff enough. And made your shocks soft enough to be able to take impacts to where you don't loose grip or upset the car too strongly. (assuming you don't only race on racetracks. Such as terrible autocross locations....)
