What I found with my Monte Carlo was the rear suspension dictated how I had to launch the car. With the ladder bars the car was quickest when it did a big wheelie and was shifted in the air.
Once I changed to the 4 link rear suspension it was quicker when I kept it from doing too big a wheelie and drove it out more.

My conclusion was the ladder bar setup didn't keep the rear tires planted as well as the 4 link so it was necessary to keep more weight on the rear tires to limit the spin.

It sure was fun doing the big wheelies though!!
