Cool, that is what I want my bird to do, only not quite that high.  I just want to be able to grab some noticable air time.

I've seen some guys running rear sway bars to help even-out the launch too.
But it's been a while since I was around drag racing.

Yes needs a torsion bar in the rear. Pre loading the rear with an air bag makes squirely shut downs when the chassis reaction instantly the opposite direction. Awesome launch, would love to know more specs on the car.
