The right suspension set up and good quality tyres at the right pressure, make a huge difference to grip levels.

 

What suspension do you have? If like most Jap imports it is hard sprung and lowered, then this will compromise grip levels a lot when accelarating hard. The right spring rate, damping, sufficient suspension travel and a good quality tyre will help the rear tyres to grip a lot better.

 

[thread=60687]THIS VIDEO[/thread] demonstrates just how much traction you can get if you take these princliples to the extreme.
