When you change gears the amount of traction you have DOES NOT change - that is a function of tires, suspension, and weight balance. It just becomes more difficult not to overpower the tires when you put a steeper gear in, so basically if you have traction problems after a gear change you just need to relearn how to launch with the extra torque multiplication.
