Well, no matter how i launch the car the rear end hops all over....i can launch from a low rpm, or a mid rpm and its still hopping all over the place. Is there anything i can do to get rid of this in terms of mods? i took my spare tire out and the car is dropped on tein s-techs..i just tried to swing the back out comming out of a turn and i dropped the clutch at a low rpm (1st time and last time doing this so dont flame) the rear end didnt swing out at all,instead it hopped all the way to redline and the car was barely moving.Any info is appreciated.

I've launched from 7.5-8k Solid with no hop, but it took a good hopping on the run before that one (also hopped up to redline had to shift into 2nd b4 it would stop). Just feather your clutch before you drop it totally, enough to get the tires spinning then you can just drop.
After installing the racing beat suspension parts (springs, front/rear sways) I have little to no wheel hop. Wheel hop still exists, but I can totally get rid of it if I bump up my rear tire pressure to about 46psi compared to 32psi normally.

If you remove wheel hop you must be sacrificing somewhere else. I get nasty wheel hop as well even under light acceleration in the snow. Its driving me nuts.
