loss of traction at high rpms?

i've noticed that sometimes (while already moving, without peeling out) when i hit between 5.5-6k rpm my tires seem to lose traction

anyone else have this traction problem?

i only have an intake

..check the tire treads, could be balled and that could be loss of traction.

i wouldn't say its a problem...but i have that too. however i assume you are stock? when i put in my flywheel she would lose her footing once vtec hit. not a problem for me, just makes me think she's more powerful now. i know the flywheel gives you nothing but opens up her potential. either way wtf as long as i get that power

i think the car has semi-cheap tires on it anyways, lol.. plus my rear right is a 195 for some reason

yea, the loss of traction does give me a sense of power, especially when it happens after going into 2nd

well mine does that too, but you gotta remeber...your tires have to heat up in the cold weather to gain traction...
