i used polyurethane for cement flooring in my mounts. ---- is very stiff when dries up and still doesn't vibrate when idles or driving. Proper alignment is needed, too.

super stiff rear will only UNLOAD the front tires on a hard launch.

Need some squat.

no if the rear doesn't squat a little than it acts like a pivot point and lifts the front a little.
stiff is good, but too stiff is bad.
there is a reason they have shocks and springs in the rear. if totally stiff was best they would just have a solid rear end.

Lower your tire pressure, that might help you hook up a little better.

As for traction bars, what car do you have?
