^ i believe he means taking off the front sway bar.

drag guys up to a bigger rear bar, sometimes remove the front bar.

Exactly, not exactly sure where you guys are getting that removing the rear bar will help straight line performance. There's a reason a sway bar for drag racing is much bigger/stiffer then stock.

Hello
What a lot of people do is they disconnect the end links or like mentioned above they just plain out remove the front bar to help with weight distribution. And I would suggest going with a rear bar due to the fact that it helps the car leave in a straighter line. That is why we offer a drag bar. Below is a link to show you what all UMI Performance has to offer!

If you have any other questions feel free to ask and I will be more than glad to help!
Thanks
Brad
