When i hit the gas in my car at higher RPMs i tend to lose traction a little on my front right wheel. It skips and sort of hops a little when im pushing it. My car just started doing this. I rotated my wheels and mounted the wheel a couple times and tested it. It keeps on loosing traction and it affects the acceleration very negatively. Is it time to get new tires? Whats goin on?
 
My problem doenst only happen when i drag race. It studders whenever i try to pass someone or speed up on the freeway. It occurs when im driving regularly but with a little extra gas. :thumbdown
 
Try some polyurathane(sp?) motor mounts. That should help if not eliminate it. On average they cost around $100.
