Assuming the cars are rear wheel drive and live axle?....

Rear anti roll bars are used to reduce understeer by introducing oversteer - 
possibly this is cheaper than addressing the problem of why the understeer is 
their in the first place.  Overall though, there is no improvement in 
cornering speeds.
