Default Hookup

I have question for you guys with more experience with these cars. It has always been difficult to keep the back tires hooked up on my car, and I don't have near as much HP as a lot of you guys - of course the 428 does put out a ton of torque. Anyway, I was really trying to adjust the ride a little and softened the rear Alden coil overs a couple clicks. I noticed a softer ride, but REALLY noticed the tires stayed hooked up better. Is this due to the car squating more which transfers the weight better/quicker to the rear wheels?
