Is it just me or do these cars get an obscene amount of wheel hop.
if i launch and get the tires spinning the car hops. i find it very hard to race because of this. every single time i spin the tires the car hops like a mofo. what could be the problem and how do i fix it? |

keep the pressure right in normal street tires. lowering the pressure will not help you launch. You will actually be riding on LESS tire thread if the pressure is too low (the outsides of the tire). Now if you have drag slicks its a different story.
