Your setting are off if using an ESC. You need to reset the radio and esc again so when you release throttle motors stops but not abruptly. Go through the setup mode again adjust the neutral settings (hi and low) and operate forward and brake functions.
In the end car should slow and travel 5-10 ft when letting of throttle, using brakes should stop it without causing it to snap outta control - by having brakes too strong.

what model is the ESC, and radio? Can't give you ideas unless I have some info on the models you are using. Newer ESCs come with a setup profile, you set the parameters on your radio first, Throttle points and such then you hookup battery to esc while radio is on go thru the setup modes and your are done. If you make a mistake disonnect ESC and start over. Once you setup the esc if a knob gets moved on radio you may need to reset esc again. Even if you don't have intructions, it's possible to download a set usually in PDF format from the manufacturer's website.
