I have a 03 cobra vert and and when I switched from street tires to drag radials it pretty much eliminated the hop for me.

when the rear wheel cant hook the power to the ground the rear wheels start to hoop


The solid axle will suck for turns???

The best way to get rid of the hoop is to throw money in the rear suspension coil overs or fat tires

That was one of the first things I was going to say. Nitto's still hop but the BFG's and Mickeys help a lot. Also a set of the QA1 Adjustable rear shocks. Depending on what you do with the car removing the front sway bar also helps.
