Had a mate sit in the car to give me pointers. Turns out that I was releasing the clutch too quickly. When I was shifting from 3->2 there was a mismatch of engine speeds between the transmission and engine. When the clutch is suddenly engaged, one of these components (engine or transmission) has to play catch up so the rear tyres lock up or more accurately drag along the road.
