actually a nice little burnout WILL help a street tire hook better. A 2nd gear burnout is a little overkill. I do a first gear bo for about 5-8secs and that seems to work perfect. If you are just turning your tires over for a split second, be prepared for some 2.2 60's unless your track is the *****HIGDON said:Overheating a street tire will actually DECREASE it's ability to grip. All you need to do is drive around the water and do a quick clean-off burn out to get the loose gravel and dirt off.

I know a few guys with stock gatorbacks that have pulled 1.9s(justsomeguy is one). I have pulled 1.9s on sumitomos and michelin pilots.
