Wheel hop is not good for drivetrain parts so getting rid of it is a plus. Running a slick doesn't always solve the problem, I'm sure that most of us have seen cars running slicks have terrible tire shake. BTW running a slick & dead hooking will induce more stress on drivetrain parts. A progressive spin will cause slower times, but will be easier on parts. Sometimes while fixing one problem we just move the problem somewhere else, so making a decision pros over cons comes to play. The more power achieved may reintroduce wheel hop once mods have been done to correct the previous problem. If everyone is worried about braking stuff I suggest that you don't race your car. Shit happens from the weekend racer to the pro level teams.
