I am at the track and my drag bar just broke the car runs about 750 in the 8th can I just disconnect the other side of tHe drag bar and run it with no bar
I am at the track running for points but I don't want to have a wreck

Anyone ran without a sway or drag bar in the rear?

Sway bar or track (pan hard) bar? No sway bar no big deal. No track bar= wreck!

no it was the rear sway bar and I tried it and all it did was lift the front left tire about a foot off the ground and the right tire stayed on the ground and it pulled toward the right towards the wall so I just got out of it and coasted down the track.

I am just going to race my Durango tonight.

You won't get optimum results, risk wrecking etc. not worth it. Fix it and come out fighting next time.

For future reference, pulling the front sway bar at the track is no big deal. Pulling the rear is DANGEROUS.

You will not launch straight and probably hit the wall.

You wont wreck. Especially at 7.50 in the 1/8th. I have a buddy with an old leaf spring Nova and he runs 5.80s in the 1/8th. low 1.3 sixty foots. No rear sway bar.

Well, this is true for leaf spring cars, but not good advice for a torque arm suspension car. With the springs being the locating devices of the axle as well, and their mounting being farther apart, your roll-center is much different than a 4th gen car. I would absolutely not recommend drag racing a 4th gen without a rear sway bar. The car will be borderline uncontrollable and very unstable

I probably could have raced it if I had just pointed it to the left, but I decided it was too risky. I have done it before with one side connected and just pointed the car the way it needed to go. It did about the same thing. I was hopping that disconnecting it would help, but it didn't. At least it was the first pass out during time trials and I was able to run my Durango even though I only won one round at least it was 10 points.

BMR, do you guys still sell that super thick rear stabilizer for drag racing?

BMR Tech2

Yes we do. We offer the most streetable anti-roll bar on the market. It has polyurethane bushings, and a bind-free design while still being able to withstand low 1.1 60' times

I just bought the BMR xtreme anti roll bar. Built solid, works great. Bolt in install and it rides good on the street as well. I highly recommend it.
