Well not big wheelies, maybe around 2'-3' each launch.
My car has always left low and straight, but now with alot of weight removed from the front end and some Afco DA front shocks and 275 springs. IDK!
Another thing, my car stays on wheel dollys in my garage most of the time. I guess I need to be extra careful when pushing it around by the fenders.

Rene, Merry Christmas man!
Ok now have some time, missed a lot of this. I would go with JL on this, I haven't raced it in the shape your talking, but felt uncomfortable with my inner fenders after removing it like the previous pic.
Go the whole saw rout but do your homework and space them for maximum weight removal.
I bet you could even take out the front inner fender, and steel keep a sturdy front end this way
Im sure I could dig you up whatever pic on this you need.
Unless of course you do through firewall bars!

I'd like to find some pics with the hole saws.
I removed my front bumper foam and crash bar and cut the bottom of the crash bar off and hole saw it. So I could still have my fog lights. That's the only lights I have up front.
And that turn out pretty nice.

Ive have some holes saw pics for many years ago somewere, of done back in the day. it was only like 3-5 pounds removed. Just 6-8 big holes and some on the bottom I think. its nothing fancy.I bet its more work to drill the holes, I would just hack it off and take all the weight. I havnt found anyone having a issue with it gone.
edit found one pic.
