As stated above... Rear anti roll bar will fix it.

And for drag racing you definitely DON'T want a F41 front sway bar and the rear bar probably isn't doing much. Lose the front bar and get an anti roll bar for the rear. Also you said the body mounts were decent. So you've removed them and checked them? If they are original, I doubt they are ok. Replace them with polyurethane mounts.

Body mounted Drag bar will fix that..

Door gaps look straight and area above tires looks equal. Body definitely not twisting.

I would check to see if the front tires are towing in at full droop. If they are, tall ball joints will help.

So if I put a anti roll bar in the rear do I take the front sway bar off?
You can. To explain the difference between an anti-roll bar and sway bar (in case you didn't know), the anti-roll bar does not bend/flex like a sway bar does. And it is attached to the frame or body at point that doesn't move separately from the body or frame, unlike a sway bar that is attached a suspension component.

You shouldn't notice a difference if the front sway bar is hooked up or not. So that means it can be removed. Lastly, don't drive the car on the street at highway speeds with the ant-roll bar hooked up - it's somewhat dangerous.

I dont know much about anti roll bars, could you explain how they are dangerous on the street just to clarify in my mind
