I was told that no rear swaybar wor loosened one will actually help traction in drag racing.I can kind of see it.But I was wanting to hear some of the pros thoughts about it.He explained it to me and it made sense but always like to get a second opinion.

I will always run a rear sway bar. In my way of thinking it will help plant the tires evenly. If it were a benefit to not run one do you think Wolfe, Billingsley Racing and BMR would spend the time and money to develop a beefy Drag specific rear sway bar?

A Beefier rear swaybar or one that allows no difference in movement between the right and left side of the car will always be better than no bar or a wimpy stock like one. The way I look at it is if there is NO swaybar than all the torque applied to the rear end that normally makes the right rear squat alot will not have anything at all to keep it from doing that. The heavier duty the swaybar the less it is able to squat only on the right rear. Probably the best option is the wolfe unit that make both sides of the rear travel together and not tilt at all. the next best and retaining more streetability would be a BMR type unit that just uses a very big bar but still acts and travels more like a stock one. But hey I'm definately not an expert on the subject <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />
