I'd be interested in seeing a similar video of what Jake's RSF and diff looks like under acceleration and braking.
Once I take the car out for the summer I'd like to get some video. After all of these rear suspension mods, I still got wheel hop during launches from a dig. I'm guessing the poly diff bushings aren't solid enough like you mentioned. I also don't think the shocks/springs I have are helping. I'd like to find a dedicated drag-oriented coilover setup for my car.

I don't mind this discussion at all
