excessive shaking while wheelspinning
just recently I've noticed the front end of the car will violently shake while launching, even in the rain. before my 3 month license suspension, launches were buttery smooth. the car has just been sitting around since. what could contribute to this? flat spot in the tire maybe?

I'd have to guess that you're actually getting wheel hop. With no power going to the front wheels there's not much reason for it to shake upon launch. Either way, inspect all the bushings and check for play in the suspension.

Maybe your suspension has something to do with it...

You had a 3 month license suspension but you're concerned about launching your car?!
