Disconnecting Front Sway Bar = Great Launches?

This is a common thing to do on other platforms before taking a few runs down the drag strip. I tried a few searches and came up with nothing... Have any E9x owners disconnected their sway bars and ran their vehicles? How was the weight transfer/launch?

Quite common on others yes. I used to do it back ib the day it is ok just do not do any high speed cornering of course.

doubt it will help on our platform. I think better tires will help with launches. There is only so much a street tire on our cars can do.
