Just curious, was it some major wheel hop? Anything you can do to avoid the wheel hop? Different tires or something? Curious cause I wan to make sure I don't do the same thing. Man does that look expensive.

I would say with you being a major stock holder in Papa Johns...you should have mass cash to get that fixed.....

Well, no stock in pizza, but as for the wheel hop, I was running very low on gas, and that's the worst wheel hop i've ever had, soo...the gas probably played a little with it, I also should have probably launched a little harder to blow the tires into smoke, and of course tires and suspension have a lot to do with wheel hop as well!
