Wheel Hop

I have an 01 Vert M6 and when I light them up I seem to get a lot of wheel hop, anyone else have this problem and how did you correct it if you did.

Thanks

I have had it happen to me a couple times too. I have heard that you need to replace the rear shocks if you get wheel hop

Wheel Hop

I have a 04 6spd vert with 2500 miles and the first time I lit em up (at 400 miles) I got wheel hop. So it's not the shocks at least in my case. Think it has more to do with run craps. But just bring the revs up a little higher and dump the clutch. It may hop at the initial hit but hold on and it will smooth out. Have fun.

Only thing I can think of would be shocks. Mine has not shown any wheel hop yet.
