The track was in great condition by the finals of that event, but even when the track is looser that setup is still very easy to drive. The only time Id take the sway bars off is if the track is very low grip and very tight with no high speed sections. I find the sway bars help SCT on a rough track as there is less body roll and therefore you maintain better suspension travel during bumpy corners.
The grey front springs and 37.5wt oil make a very big difference to driveability.

The front sway bar is more important than the rear - running a rear sway bar only will reduce rear traction on a dusty surface. Running the diff too loose makes an SCT feel terrible in my experience.
