One trick I've used over the years when things got dicy and the drive wheels start sliding is to punch the clutch in or knock it in neutral. This allows the tires to use all their traction to keep the car going in the right direction or to stop. Even with the throttle at idle there is some braking, or tractive effort that takes away from the available traction.
