rear end sliding

hey guys i just brought 09' spec nt1. i have set it up as per the recommended setup in the manual. Took the car to the track and i have noticed every time i accelerate i loose rear end traction. When turning, the car oversteers and spin out, when shifting from first to second down the straight away the rear end loses traction. I have the hudy all in one system. I have set the rear droop to 4, front 1. Rear camber 2.5 front 2.0 and rear toe at 2.5 front -0.5. I am so frustrated at this point and would appreicated some direction.

What tires are you running?

I suggest to try 3 degrree toe in. Please make sure that clutch is not too tight and for sure try softer tire compoun like 35 in front and 37 in rear. Tires make bigg defference. Make the tire diameter little bigger, small diamter tires have less traction

nice to hear that your car works again

I would suggest to try mine worlds set-up. I use this set up everywhere and in all track conditions with only very small changes

I have read all of the above info is there any other reason that your car would do this. Mine has been doing this to, on the strait away it did a complete 180*. I thought it was the belts, I checked them they were good. I gave it 3* camber and 3*toe in too soften up the cluch. 'll check the shocks next as was posted here :cry:
