Only real way would be to add a 50 pound bag to each side in the back although I do not think I would recommend this strategy. Better suspension components and tires will help you plant and launch better with less weight added. Although the sand would be quicker to install and cheaper.
I would give it a shot what do you have to lose. I would start with 20 lbs, and work my way up till i saw my mph start to decrease. Are you an auto or a stick, do you spin off the line?

How about you poke holes in the bag, and drill a hole so it emptys out by the end of the 1/4 lol
I would do at the most, two 50pounds each side...But I wouldnt do it if you stock weight...If you were lightend alot and you really need traction it would be a ok idea..
But sus peices is a better thing to do..
Get some used Lower control arms
