Finally here's the kicker. Install a rear "lip" wing instead of the stock McLaren wing. Very simply made the width of the car with about a 2/3 inch chord length and 30 deg angle on it. Stick it on with some servo tape. The wing is the Key. We did some experiments with the Feinsteins on this and it works. Very well. You see all Mini-Z bodies provide lift on the rear tires (except for the Pan car style bodies). A wing this size provides just the necessary amount of downforce at the rear tires. The AWD CG is a bit higher than on the MR02 and when cornering hard, it tends to lift the inside rear tire. This amount of downforce (about 2-3 grams) is enough to almost entirely eliminate traction rolling. (effective about 99% of the time)

Hope it helps. Give us some feedback on the results.
No problem, your the expert here! Try his setup as it is more directly related
