Worth noting, Brads Fox is always one of the fastest / smoothest looking rides out there in the twisties. Certainly doesn't hurt he's one hell of a wheel man. Gonna be a piss off when he gets more power.
In the same breath (long winded one I guess) Dave is also uber fast n smooth at the track, his is sporting aftermarket sway bar (don't recall if front and back or just front), maybe he'll chime in. Car also has very good street manners.

Been catching that too. Might be the first thing to try before spending a good chunk of coin on sway bars. It’s one area that might be over looked. I would’ve never even thought of it if I didn’t start researching. It makes perfect sense.... When dropping the ride height the front sway bar does change its angle when the stock length end links are still present, and by the sounds of it, it wouldn’t perform as it should properly.
So.... my first move then is to get a proper measurement with the suspension under load in relation to the sway bar’s position.
Got to say it’s great talking about tech stuff again. Been a long time for me!

I swapped the sway bars front and rear to Steeda pieces when I did the suspension on my 88GT years ago and enjoyed the upgrades.
I've since changed everything up BUT when I installed the UPR K-Member I made sure to have sway bar brackets in place so that I could bolt it back on for street driving and remove it for the drags.
It really does suck street driving it without one on my car. I quickly get reminded how bad it is without one every time I get on the hwy or exit off it.
