g37S 6MT at WOT

Does anyone else have the issue of the car back end wanting to break loose whenever you WOT in first gear at a rolling start or start in general... My car just doesn't want to stay on the road... even if i just barley floor it it still loses traction and the VDC kicks in or will just burn out 20 feet if its off... i have tried on different roads and its always the same result... i dont remember having this issue in the summer and its not currently even that cold...my tires also are fairly new... is this normal?

i just asked b/c it never really bothered me until i drove my dad porsche boxster today and that thing gripped no problem at WOT.. i know its not as fast but still...

is this just a tire issue?

In the cold weather, my 6mt breaks loose in first gear on a roll and spins through second and spins part of third. This won't happen in the summer. Denser cold air and cold tires.

Cold weather will do it everytime, once the tires warm up you should be ok.
