like the title says my car from a dead stop feels like its going to snap the axles.What can i do to get the car to hook better and to eliminate wheel hop?
Helpful Driving Tips:
- Practice Launching, Find what RPM you can launch at with little wheel spin. Keep Practicing, Its hard to get a Perfect launch, However with practice it will be rewarding.
- Don't launch over the RPM you find, all it will do is make you slower and give wheel spin/hop. This might be enough to let a less Powered Car beat you in a drag Race.
- If you Spin your Wheels after launching, Don't hold your foot in it, back off the gas a little(not all the way) and then re-apply full throttle. You might have to do this all the time in 1st gear no matter what you do.
- Warm up your tires before you take off.
Helpful Car Modifications:
- Get Stickier Tires or Drag Radials to grip better.
- Run Studded tires on your fount wheels. This may be illegal at certain times of the year, However Studded Tires are awesome for Launching.
- Get and Install a Traction Bar. I have never personally used One, However I have heard only good things about Them.
