Not a fan of Brooks from Drag Times; however, this video demonstrates the violent launches of the SJV as it momentarily lifts its front tires off the ground for several runs.  https://youtu.be/_qnUJLhhkgo 

My Lancia Delta HF Integrale 16V did the same after it was tuned to over 280 hp...until the propeller shaft (drive shaft) bent. Smiley Smiley It went up quite high, a couple of centimeters, quite spectacular.

It is a shame though to see a SVJ on a drag strip, doesn't make any sense. Same goes to the donuts they performed in that same(?) video. This is a track car, maybe even a road car for having fun but the drag strip? Smiley This is no Hellcat.

My dad had a Lotus Europa with a heavily tuned Gordini engine than would do that as well. Car probably only had 150hp but then again it probably weighed 1200lbs...
