Had the same problem. Bought several different sets of top qualty shoes and the car wouldn't saty in the burnout box. Finally realized the shoes didn't get hot enough to hold. Have some cheap (look like cardboard) shoes on now and they work fine but fortunately I don run at any real short tracks. Never thought about using 2 larger shoes but might give that a try.
