Disconnecting the rear sway bar will not be dangerous, at worst it will cause the car to understeer (push) a lot, which is very safe. Not fast, but at least you won't spin. I've raced cars that when it rained, we disconnected the rear sway so I could have nice, safe, predictable understeer in the wet.

Steve, you said the rear stepped out under constant throttle, does it snap out, or progressively come around? Will it keep going further and further out and then you'll have a big moment, or does it just step a few degrees and then take a set? If the new cornering attitude is predictable and won't bite you, then the adjustment may be in your driving.

It does take a bit of getting used to going from a car that pushes, to one that corners tail-out. You made some very big changes to the set-up on your car, and it probably will want to be driven differently now to go quick on the track.

Each step in getting quicker (both the car and you the driver) can be difficult, as you will have to move out of your comfort zone each time.
