The main thing I see is pairing the right motor to ESC, make sure your chassis is not tweaked and set up properly, and choose the right tires for track traction (too much tire traction is not a good thing).
Those are pretty strong comments man.... and not necessarily very discrete either, for anyone that knows the track.
