Default Jac-Rabbit owner need some help or ideas.

I've had my Jac-rabbit for a while, anyways I finally got around to putting elecs. and hooking everything up. Problem- All I can do is donuts with it?!?!? It has decent power but the rear end keeps sliding out, even when slowly getting up to speed. Any Ideas, hint's, tricks would be greatly appreciated. I have ribbed fronts and staggered knobbies in the back if that helps.

The g2d with that gear box makes mega power. You need to change the gearing up to help reduce wheel spin. You can also try to soften up the rear shocks. Are you running the Raco tuned pipe or just the stock mufler?

Actually, I pulled the stock muffler off and using a FG touring car tuned pipe(yes it's hack, looks like a rhino(LOL!!) parts are hard to come by for these things, and when you do see them, they want your 1st born! In fact there is a set of 4 raco rims w/ truck tires on E-bay now right now they are at $250.00+ and still have many days on it, they seem to to be in great shape though.

Those tires on ebay are really expensive when they were new. Thats why they are so high. They are just about impossible to find too. They were about $400 new 10 years ago just for the tires without the rims!!!!!!
