Are you using street tires? If so then go around the water box, and spin the tires really quickly just to get the built up rubber from the track off the tires. You dont want to do a burnout with street tires.

what qcksprnt said, go around the box and just dump the clutch to clean your tires off a lil. you dont need to do a 2nd gear burnout

Yeah, what he said. If you have street tires they really don't need to be heated up, so just skip the waterbox and do a quick little burnout to get the tires clean.
