You need to run the most you can get away with. Stock on a 305 i ran 22+. Probably could have run 25
I ran 22 the other night and blew the tires off. It was hooking on that until the tune was stepped up.

You need sticky tires. Stat at 20 and do a big burnout. Anyone who tells you just barley do a burnout is wrong

It was a smoky, rolling burnout and fresh prep. Matted it and it immediately spun. So psi must be the culprit.

It's a quick smokey burnout, otherwise the track will wad up and drop under the tires, which makes another problem or the MTs are hot and will become like a slick.

MT's do not like to be over heated. Vs Nitto's 555rs they love to make a smoke show.

My experience has been doing as much as a 3 gear smoky burnout and it works for me with m/ts. Its all about what works. If one way doesn't work try another

I was going to say let's not get into a burnout pissing contest. It's whatever works for you. I do appreciate any feedback and suggestions.
If you are spinning and not getting smoke from your tires I do not believe they are warm enough. On cold days when I cut my 1.2 60 ft I had smoke rolling into the car.

I wasn't making a challenge or pissing contest, I'm trying to provide some info.

I'll bet @vortecd you go through those 3 gears pretty quick?
I'm just saying if it isn't quick and it starts taking too long and the MTs will get overheated and slick up.

I know because I have had times when I couldn't get the wheels spinning.

But I also know that the quick smoke show works best. I even had someone come up to me one time and told me he counted how long I was in a burnout and that is what he used.

I also know for me because my Tunes have changed through the years. I have to readjust how the burnout is done and also the launch.

Linda :)

Don't get your panties in a bunch here people.

I didn't want people to start having a heated conversation is all.

I will edit that post, if I can find it.

It hit 83° here today. Temperatures will drop over the weekend. Mostly 70s next week.
