How to tune a grossly overpowered RWD car.

I've got a couple of RWD cars (A Corvette Stingray L46 '69, and a Ferrari 512) both equipped to the max with all of the performance goodies. The problem is, it seems they are too powerful. While accelerating out of a turn, the rear tires break loose and the cars go spinning. I've turned up the LSD's to the max, and that helps me, but there are consequences to this as well. I would just adjust the gear ratios in the lower gears, but it seems that option isn't available anymore.

I am able to handle the cars well using the "egg under the pedal" theory, but it seems my B spec drivers only know pedal to the floor, or brake. There is no in between for them, so they are spinning all over the place out of turns. The cars are sufficient to win any race they are in, but the driver's lose the races in the turns.

Any tuning experts out there that can offer any advice?

Thanks,
Mike
