Default Loose Rear End

I have an Xray T2 008 Spec I just got to get back into TC racing. Having a problem planting the rear end though just seems to be like it is on ice The car is completely kit from the box, any advice appreciated.

Always if you want this sort of help - post your current setup - others won't your current position and thus it's harder to give right answer - there might be something wrong with your setup that can be seen straight away.

What surface are you running on and what tyres are you using? Also if the car is second hand / well used how is the rear diff? I would consider trying to pick up a gear diff from the forum or ebay just to make the handling more consistent from week to week.

T3 2012 with stock setup should not have a loose rear end. There must be something wrong with the car, or the tires.
