Unless your car rolls over to the right on launch enough to clearly notice, disconnecting the front bar is a waste of time. Even removing it completely only helps by losing a few lbs of weight up front. Whether you get enough straight line help by front bar removal to matter, there will be some risk of ending up with oversteer under some (or maybe many) predictable driving situations.

IRS cars can't effectively use either low front roll stiffness or high rear roll stiffness to help equalize rear tire grip like the stick axle cars can, because there's no chassis roll for them to work with and no driveshaft-induced unloading of the RR tire to have to fix.
