Again, my personal experience.

My personal experience turns 1:54's on the Daytona Road Course in a pre 991 Cup car. The idea that a front bar will loosen a cars handling is just pure nonsense.
I've been setting up racecars and cars for the track for nearly 25 years now.
You need to go buy the book "The Art & Science of Racecar Development & Tuning" by Carroll Smith and read it cover to cover a couple times, paying close attention to Chapter 6.
While you may think you feel something, your butt does not get to re-write the laws of physics. Front bars with higher rates add understeer, full stop.
