Default wheel hop problem

To all the guys that drives 92-95 hacthes out there, whenever yall burn out from the start, does your car wheel hop alot, I know there are motor mount insert to help emlinate wheel hop, I am planning to get some soon. But is there anyway other way to emlinate it, what I do now is just riding the pedal and feathering it on the gas whenver I am racing from the start. It still hop but not bad enough. thanks

I had bad wheel hop on my '92 sable and it was caused by a busted engine mount. I eneded up getting some from the SHO Shop that where heavy duty ones that would not brake under the engine load. Those thing where a pain in the a$$ to replace (you had to remove AC compressor and jack up the engine.........
