Next would be shocks adjustable for both compression and rebound. Adjust the front shock full soft on rebound and full stiff on compression. This will let to front of the car come up quicker and hold it there longer. More weight transferred to the rear. Two ways to adjust the rear shocks. Adjusted the rear shocks full stiff on compression and about 50% to 75% on rebound. This will make the rear harder to squat and will not let the rear raise up to quickly. Or adjust the rear shocks full soft on compression and full stiff on rebound. This lets the rear end squat and not let it raise to quickly.

Be careful with full solid bushings on drag applications. Its not normally the rubber that is causing the issues as far as wheel hop and traction. Maybe the diff bushing, but when you go solid on the others you start to see broken axles and broken diffs, as the rubber helps absorb some of the "shock" on launch.

As for what may help, good shocks and good tires will be the best bet, nail in a good alignment. What are you tuned on? ECUtek has some real nice traction control options that may be of help also.

All comes down to budget, if you can put up between $1200-24000 for shocks we can get you a set built to your needs. Tires will be all over in price depending on what you choose.

The best thing, will be practice. The more you take the car to the track, the better you will get at driving it.
