The 350Z and Infiniti's have a wheel hop problem as well when they break traction. The key is to not let wheel spin get out of control.

This is the technique I use at auto-x.

Hold revs at around 3500
Drop clutch
Feather throttle at between 50-75% such that the revs stay between 3-4.5K until you feel the rear hook up.
Floor it!

If the revs get too high while you don't have traction you'll just get monster wheel hop.
