Default rustler vxl gears turn, but wheels cant keep up

I have a Rustler VXL with a 4700MaH 8 cell Maxamps battery, and when I push the throttle, the gears turn super fast, but the tires take a second to get to speed. I know that this battery is capable of doing wheelies, but the wheels cant keep up. Is there a way to fix this?

tighten ur slipper clutch. its the nut at the end of ur spur gear. only do little adjustment at a time, if ur clutch is to tight that much power will twist ur axels in half
