One tip: You have to cross the lanes and back into the burnout box, so it's possible for a little debris to be dragged up in front of the burnout box. It's a long way from the burnout box to the starting line. Keep your wheel wells and rocker panels free of debris, and it'll keep that area cleaner, easier. Burn to the starting line and you won't pick up anything that is there. My dad commented that he only saw Wes and I burning past that area last year.
Michael,

I am a bit confused as I was there last year the week before the event and can picture it. Roll out of the lanes, back up towards the wall into the water box, spin do the burnout but pull a John Force, stocker style burnout toward the start line? Sounds fun, but the officials may not think too fondly of it!
