Re: Wheelie bars?
Try starting by using some front end limiters. I can see your front wheels fully extended so I know you don't have or use limiters.
Drop your instant center down and move it back if you can to reduce the amount of lift on the front.
Although I can lift my front wheels, I don't pull them enough to need wheelie bars and my car has enough power to run low to mid 9's.
