Likewise I've got issues with it on wet astro and on some slippery tracks but I didn't work that much on setup.
Two big races where I was upset but I learn a lot.

Bought a RB6 and race it on a lot of tracks, like it but still miss some specific handling properties of the DB1.

Rebuilt the car properly (was needed) and applied setups changes I learn on the RB6 (dry to wet) and run the car again this week and whaooo, awesome.

On wet astro : weight/rear shocks middle holes on tower and 2mm shims removed on the rear inside link and voila, a proper car for wet.

I will be keeping both and race the two in two different classes.

Glad I kept it and keep working on it, once the right setup for the track is found it's a wining machine.

Now got to work on carpet/minipin to free the rear a bit (maybe lowering rear toe) to gain some initial steering.

Big thanks btw to Tony and Kev, besides the car those two are really here to help.
