Hello
To help with a better launch I would suggest going with a rear drag bar! It helps both front tires. And depending on what spring/shock combo you are running. And you have to leave at high RPM's . But like mentioned above other than spray these few suggestions might help as well. Below is a link to show you what all UMI Performance has to offer!

thanks for the input, would a rear drag bar be a better next investment or would one of your tunnel mounted tourque arms be best. im not sure how the drag bar actually works.

Hello
No Problem! that's what I am here for. The Drag bar mounts to the rear just like factory but it is a 1.25 diameter and instead of having poly end links they are a solid rod end that allow to adjust the pre load of the vehicle. And that is what will allow the car to leave straight. Now what is the better choice to do first the torque arm or the rear drag bar???? I would say if you are still using the factory arm on the rear of the transmission I would go with the tunnel mounted arm then. Because that will save you the headache of possibly breaking the mount and tail shaft. And then when you do that upgrade then go with the sway bar ( But don't wait to long they are on sale right now..... If you have any other questions feel free to ask and I will be more than glad to help.
Thanks

Pullin wheels dosen't always mean faster a can be hard on car, That bein said in addition
to what's already been said, good drag shocks 90/10's on front & removal of front sway bar will help get ya there!!!
