Default TM2: Uncontrollable slide

I race at the Kampenhout track (astro high grip).
When I accelerate out of a corner, the rear steps out violently.
It's a standard TM2.
F: long link, no spacers, std piston, 30w, medium spring, top middle, bottom inner, staggered rib
R: long link, std piston, 25w, medium spring, top middle, bottom inner, mini spike, 2000w dif
My TC02C also slides but more controllable!
I am looking for a bit more stability!
Would the 30 degene caster blocks or -1 degree rear hubs help in solving this issue?
Or schould I have a look at anti squat and droop?
Any other suggestions?
Motor is an 8,5.
Thanks

The hubs and 30 degree caster blocks will help, also drill two holes in each piston to 1.4mm and cut through the rear top deck. Go down to 1000 diff oil or better still use a ball diff, this i think makes the biggest difference.

Heavier diff oil will be better as 1 k will make it over rotate.. I have gone upto 3k and it's loads better.. And Alec is right cut rear top deck and 2 holes drilled make massive difference

What pinion size are you running?
What punch settings are you on?
The TM2 can be quite aggressive if you are not used to the direct drive / gear diff of the car.

You say in your set up that you are running the long rear camber link position, is that long as in the longest possible (inner on shock tower and outer on hub)?

If so then just try shortening the link....I would go shorter on the hub....I've found a shorter link helps square the car up coming out of corners.
