Hi John, Welcome to the site and to Region 2.
As far as the Lee Speedway opportunity, it was rained out. Stormed cats and dogs on that particular Friday as I recall. Though some refer to our cars as "boats", I wasn't sure they'd let us in with our outboards to get around the track. Hopefully there'll be another opportunity in the near future.
As far as wheel hop, I'd be glad to speculate, but there are lots of 5th Gen owners here in Region 2 and a few of them can even spin both their rear tires Perhaps one of them can answer you directly. Or, better yet, use the search feature on the driveline/suspension forum and see what you come up with. You can't be the 1st guy with this problem.
Finally, if all else fails, post the question in the suspension/driveline forum.
Good luck _________________ 70 Elky (Non-SS) 454CID, TH700-R4
