No front sway is supposed to help the weight shift better on a launch. If you drive n the street or DD put one on.

No rear sway bar?

Why would they remove the rear one? lol.
Its drivable without the rear sway bar?

You can DD without front sway bar easily. I had adjustable shocks and no front bar and cranked em to full stiff and didn't even notice it was gone.

They help with sway..lol
they help keep the body from rolling as you go into turns, without them it will be like driving a 1973 Chrysler Newport(a boat).

Are you yelling or asking a question?
Put sway bars back on...good ones like Strano or BMR.
Only dedicated drag cars should be without either end.
Street cars are dangerous without, unless you drive like granny 100% of the time.
