Yeap same here when I got my EL it did the same thing and it had bigger tires then a stock civic. But know after afew try's I found it's also the pavement new pavement rocks, and the older one grip's, like here and there cuz the pavement has like streatch lil bit. (more cracks).

just hold it @ 4000 RPM and feel the cluth out . don't do it too slow you'll burn your clutch lil bit. and if you don't here tires scweeling right away, push the clutch back in and out again (like a double clutch ) you should have no prob's. m JUST WATCH YOUR CLUTCH.
