Tire spin is fun but if you think about it really it's not a good thing. If you can't keep the tires from spinning once you're up into your RPM range and moving then you are sacrificing power. Big time. And you will lose races because of that if you care about that sort of thing.

Tire spin at 4500+ rpm is bad. If it were me I'd try to do something about that sooner or later. It's another reason I don't want more than about 400whp. Getting it to the ground becomes a PITA the further out you go.
