Errr... Don't press it so hard :P
lol

Try selecting a higher gear if its a big problem.

other than that just be more careful with the throttle
you have to be gentle, esp. when the tyres are cold. Start in 2nd or third and learn a bit of throttle control.
im driving with mouse so i know that problem very good
heres what i do:
lower tyre pressure on the backwheels (not all the way down just a bit)
if u still have problems, then just drive always a gear higher as u usually do, means if u take the turn normally in 2 nd gear , take it in the third gear and ur back wont catch u.
Yea, don't step on the throttle, ease into it. start straightening the wheel as you ease into the throttle as well. You can dial out most oversteering/throttle spinning with the setup, but most of the faster guy's setups are loose in the rear end. That is faster. You have to learn to steer a bit with the throttle and a little less with the wheel.

also a lot of positive toe on rear wheels helps a lot, but it makes harder entering corners...i only suggest as a start and to help making a whole lap without spinning, after that decrease it a bit then try again and so on, it helped me with rwd to get the feeling

also use the clutch pad differential and put 40% or lower values on power and coast, but again this is only to get in touch with rwd...
To make RWDs easiest to drive use a low power side setting (under 25%) and a high coast side setting (over 60%).
im sure a lot of people will want to kill me for that suggestion but im absolutely sure it helps a lot with getting a feel for the rwds:

go to the carpark or the autocross area and practice drifting a bit ... it really helps with learning to keep the rear end stable

oh and dont look at the curbs or anything while going through a corner ... look into the distance

Agreed. I couldn't drive the XR GT Turbo to save my life. Then I went to the car park, did some drifting and learnt to control the car. As my driving improved, the rear slid out less and less on the track because I was learning to control the throttle and the steering, but I would have just given up had I not started by learning how to catch a slide on the car park first. The result? 1:24.81 on self made setup around Blackwood and now I can control some of the faster RWD cars.

I think that's a great idea LOL my daughter, when she plays, her favorite thing to do is try to park the car in the spaces with out double parking,
forwards and backwards..... oh well I guess she needs the practice for when she gets older and drives to the mall

but yeah, that really is a good idea.
