This is true. It allows the front suspension to fully extend during launch, transferring weight more quickly to the rear of the car.. It also knocks 25lbs or so off of the front end. You really need good traction to fully realize the benefit though.
The down side is that it seriously hampers high speed handling, so be mindful of that if you find yourself coming hot into a corner.
A compromise I have heard is to use the longest practical end links, rubber bushings, and even a 4cyl. sway bar. For turning at the end of the quarter mile with no sway bar and even street lane changes you need a sway bar or easy clean vinyl seat covers.
I'm all about swaybars for handling. I have some nice Eibach swaybars in my daily driver...
But for a street strip car, I never use the front swaybar. It's completely unnecessary. And a fox can actually corner just fine without the front bar if you have decent sized front tires. (my last one like this used 205/50-17 front tires on Pony Rs)
interested in this also...Is there an available sway bar quick disconnect like the 4x4 crowd uses?
