Traction control will help, but not eliminate the slip angles a rear wheel drive car creates. Particularly if you're driving hard into a corner, neither TDC or VDC will help change to laws of physics. Weight shifts forward under braking and rapidly pivoting the Z while applying throttle is a sure way to get the tail to come around. Try to be smoother in making your inputs and rev-matching when downshifting will also keep the tires from breaking traction.

Are you talking about simply spinning the rear tires or "spinning out", like this?
