Sounds like you just found your problem Simple really, the car's is not balanced. You don't have weight transfer to the rear when you get on power. You need the rear weight transfer to generate rear grip. Firm up the front spring and soften the rear (you can lean the rear shock in on top and lean it out up front on top). Also for more rear weight transfer you can let out some front droop. Good luck.
