No Rear Sway Bar = better 60's??? I have been pulling 1.60-1.65 60fts on a stock rear sway... well i tried to rely on just the QA1's to control the roll{no rear sway}.. well i found letting the car lean harder to the right gave me constant 1.580 and under 60's..... ????? floating the front left wheel for a good while?? Will A nice aftermarket bar be the the ticket to an even launch that could pull lower 60's than my current best???

Thanks... it went from high 1.5's to consitant 1.50's... this was on the motor with a 3500RPM 3 disk converter that was setup for spray and my little old 385CI LS1... I had trouble getting her to dead hook with spray... I am getting the car ready for the track again... now with a 427CI LS2 using ETP's new LS7 heads... I am also bringing down my race weight from 3400lbs to 3100lbs... so hopefully my sixities will improve as well

Great, thanks! Im almost sold on the Wolfe Bar. I may try the shock settings one more time. But as a cam only ls1 car im trying to keep that title. and better launching and pulling weight has been my priority. I just dont get how nO REAR SWAY actualy helped my 60'...?? Did it load that one wheel better and help stay planted?? The car torque steered harder than ever!!
