Default Wheel Hop

So I was practicing launching this car on some back roads today and I have horrible wheel hop through first, second and it will hop and then catch and go in third gear. It doesn't spin really bad just wheel hop. From what I have read the remedy for this is rear lower control arms? I was going to take it to the track tomorrow but I am having second thoughts about it. Never really had this issue on either of my foxbodies so I'm not really sure how to go about.

Yes a good set of lower control arms should get rid of most of the wheel hop
