The front sway bar serves no purpose in drag racing, and you won't gain much by removing it, but removing weight from the front always helps. Just make sure you put it back for street driving, as the car will handle pretty crappy without it. Leave the rear sway bar on. It helps a little by trying to keep the rear of the car from squatting down on the right side.
