Wheel Hop

I dropped the pressure to 25 in the rear and every time I launched it hopped really bsd Perhaps coilovers will help a little? Or maybe I wasn't launching high

Perhaps coilovers will help a little? Or maybe I wasn't launching high enough/too high?

I can do burnouts no problem but it hops when I floor it in 1st and pops out of gear..

I'd only get wheelhop at the track if I didn't launch it just right. If I got on the gas too late after the rears started to grip, I'd usually get some wheel hop.

I got around that by just hitting the gas hard/fast as soon as I let the clutch out and the rear starts to squat.

It all happens in a split second so timing and practice is key.
