Car shakes in rain

[ThatOneKid]

So today I am at a stop sign and its a little rainy outside and my TC is off so I do my usual and attempt to get a little wheel spin instead my si decides to not move forward but starts shaking really badly on the left after a few seconds it crawled forward and it was fine after that is this normal?

i think thats called wheel hop

 

[Jake LXer]

I believe...im not sure but i believe i read on here that a rear engine mount will decrease or almost eliminate wheel hop

Stock tires suck in the rain, and you're trying to spin your wheels with traction control off?

sounds a lot like wheel hop. You have to be careful too much wheel hop can damage drivelne components. Rear motor mount will drastically reduce this.

That's wheel hop for sure, as @Flightmaster127 said it's very bad and will cause damage. Funny thing to me is I rarely get wheel hop with the stock RMM, rear motor mount, but can feel the motor rock back and forth bad.
