Do we have a front sway bar?

If so... are there any aftermarket ones? are their benefits from upgrading ours?

Yes, no, minimal. Going thicker will reduce roll, but will decrease ultimate g-load after a certain extent.

i have always wondered that. having a stiffer frame, while reducing roll, seems to me that if one wheel starts to slip, the frame will not compensate and the car will loose traction all around. as such, for true race cars, the frames are super strong, but the tires and differentials are such that the possibility of beginning to slip is much reduced.
