Default Wheels up?

Have any of you guys pulled the front wheels off the ground at the strip? I'm just wondering bc next year I plan on running a sticky tire at the strip and being h/c/ stalled with some suspension and weight reduction I'm wondering if it's possible.

sure is possible. Just depends on if you hook or not, depeding on track prep. I pulled the wheels up last year when I was home. only a few inches, but it was fun!

here is a crappy video of it:
