Buy Dave Morgans book. ""Doorslammers. A Chassis Book" It has everything you need to learn

One size doesn't fit all. In terms of weight transfer a lot depends on stored energy-weight on the rear springs whether it be leaf or coil vs shock settings/valving. High bar pick-up points are fast reacting, low are slow. The first movement of the rear dampers(shocks) is to extend. The longer you can prolong/manage that movement the less the wheelstand. Specific damper valving plays a huge role as well .... linear-progressive or the modern regressive valving (pressure drop). Look at the rearend seperation on high hp cars in classes where wheely bars aren't allowed for clues. I'd say Bickle's Chassis book is far and away the best. You'll never stop learning from it if you have the ability to read between the lines and/or critically think. Generic idea's/explanations never reach the levels most all strive for.
