Had to ask several times for water in the burnout box. Would roll through and get the tire wet all the way around, back up, leave a coulpe feet in front of me, bring it up to 2800 in 1st gear and mat it, and it barely got to 5500 rpm, never even got to pull 2nd. I always see several instances of people having problems doing a burnout at MIR. I almost wonder if there's something different in the concrete there, because even Pageland Dragway only has 2-3ft of water tops, and I never have a problem doing a burnout there (or anywhere else). Are they spraying traction compound all the way back to and including the box?

Chip - prolly gonna be Thursday morning before I can get out of here. Schedule's killing me. Good luck at Piedmont this weekend.
