Front Sway Bar?

[HogStang]

I have a Roush Front Sway bar, will this slow me down at the track or does it not matter? And how will it effect me?

Disconnect it @ the track, put it back together before you drive home. It'll help w/ the launches.

Anyone know how much the stock one weighs? Im trying to figure out if its really worth taking off.

 

[Babbat]

The weight really isn't the cause to disconnect it. When you launch, the sway bar doesn't let your front end torque and lift the wheels as much(less weight transfer). Most people believe your 60' times improve if you disconnect it, and you maybe get a little more if you remove it.

It definalty improves your launch, on street tires or slicks, it allows the front end to come up all the way....I take mine off everytime...

i took mine off last time i went to the track. it didn't get my 60's any faster, but it did make them a lot more consistant there just wasn't much i could do on worn out tires

as for the weight thing, i still haven't put mine on, so give me a few minutes & i'll go weigh it...........


it weighed 17 pounds on my home scale
