The burnout depends on what kind of tires you have.Watch a few runs before you go up.See where the staging lights are.You will pull up to them,the top yellow one will go on,then pull up a little more and the second will go on.Then wait for the tree.Again,it depends on what kind of tree there using before you can get advice.My track usually uses a pro-tree,its real fast.Just have fun doing it,and you will do fine
