Wheel Stands
my car dosent make enough power to put it on the bumper or even pull the whell 1'. but i would like it to do a small whellie, just to say that it does. ita a cam only car so i can dump the clutch kinda high, im at 5k dumps now and the rear squats hard and teh front lifts up but still no air under the tires. its got a torque arm, lower control arms, sub frame connerctors, e/t streets, 3.90s, stock 16x8 wheels up front and stock shocks and springs front and rear. i was wondering of what would be the next part to buy to help get the wheels up?

LOL... you sure don't want to do it on purpose, but yes everyone needs to experience it at least once.

The first video crushed headers, broke oil pan, cracked block, shattered bell housing and peeled up the bumper a little, not good. The second one just scraped the back bumper and crossmember I put in 1/2" lower than oil pan. Life saver.

If you don't care, would you mind to elaborate a little on your suspension mods and setup and what you think helped you to achieve wheel stands quite like that? I am not looking to do quite what you are, but hey that's what they made wheelie bars for, right? lol Btw is that N/A? And how much horsepower is being made at the tires?
Thanks for any help...

wheel stands are crazy, they feel wierd in the car, no more track in front of you and all you can hope is that it comes back down. Mine is in the sig, no f bodies were harmed in the pic
