They need at least 600bhp to spin out properly,tell him to get more power!

Either that or make it front wheel drive so you can hand brake it better.

Original diff fuked, or someone has replaced it with an open diff, it'll still snake about on a straight bit of road but just won't do donuts

His flux capacitor may be slipping a bit and dropping the power to the rear wheels
