Its not hitting the tire at all, you need to work on the rear suspension.

That bouncing looks mighty familiar. You have a manual transmission?

6 comp-8 rebound- rear strange DA

1.513
4.448

Not sure what do do with the shocks?

I have to add about 50 pounds to the car, to make weight. I thinking about bolting a 45 plate to the passanger rear bumper support holes? Or should I keep it centered, like in the T top well?

ya I hear you have to hit DR hard? Even with a t56 and a street clutch. Keep in mind I have about 450 whp and no progressive power control stuff.

6 speed or not, when you leave, you should see the wheel drive the tire into the ground.

stiffen the rear compression up alot more?
Some local that switched to DR said he found you set the rear stiff. like almost opposite of slicks. he runs almost full stiff compression, and almost full loose on the rebound in the back.

Stiff compression and the extension is going to be loose enough to hit the tire hard initally.
