Talking i think i might need some shocks

well last weekend i finally gave her hell from a dead start. i didnt even get down past 1/2 throttle and i damn near rattled me and my friend to death lol. i think i might need some new shocks. hopefully that will solve the wheel hopping problem. they look pretty bad lol. or maybe ill just leave it and say i got hydralics

Replacing the rear shocks will help eliminate your wheel hop if they are wore out.
