Actually adding more rubber/grip to the rear will increase wheel hop

I find it amazing as I NEVER experienced wheel hop in my GT500. Then again it already had the FR3 suspension on it when I bought it. I went ahead and got the UCA & LCAs because I figured I would need them for future HP upgrades...
