Default Wheel hop much?

I don't know about you guys, but I used to have TONS of wheel hop if I got on it. A good clutch can do that to ya! Anyway, I just did the ghetto polyurethane motor mount thing, and it kicks ass. Go to Home Depot, get a tube of polyurethane sealant, pop out a single motor mount, and fill in all the space inside. It takes about 2 days to dry. Thank God I have a ton of mounts laying around. I just did the driver's side upper mount, and it's amazing.

Shifting is cleaner (the engine isn't swaying when you let off the throttle), power hits the ground faster, wheel hop is GREATLY diminished, and it was CHEAP! Off the line, I can spin instead of hopping through first. Hit secnd and she spins again instead of the old hop.

The only downside is that it creates a bit of vibration at idle.

Don't use this as instrutions and get yourself hurt, now. I'm not responsible for you being a dumbass!
