Default Traction issues.

Okay, so Since I got my xmods, Ive notice my floor is extremely slippery, like bad. Its a great surface too drift on, heck! I can even drift it with soft slicks, and thats the bad part.

I mean, Sure Ive drifted a tad with my car, but it had drift tires, or hard slicks, but I just went down too run it alittle again today, and I wanted too kinda do like a auto cross thing, so I set up alittle coarse, and I threw on Soft slicks, cause I know, Softer tires= best traction, kinda like in real life, Less air = Better traction.

Anyways, I threw on a pair of soft slicks, and I spun, alot, Liek I could serously drift with soft slicks on and thats horrable, Sure im on a hard wood surface but whats gonna help me get traction?

If this helps, car mods are...

-Awd
-Lock diffs
-6th cell
-S2 with 8:25 gears, [ This could be the reason ]
-Soft slicks
-Red suspension in the front, Yellow in rear
-4.5 degree tie rod

Thats about it, Im starting too think its cause the motor gearing?
And Yes, my slicks are Fairly new.
