It is a legitimate question though, it depends on the tires. I'm convinced there is no advantage doing a burn out with my road race slicks. They seem to take a LONG time to warm up and I've done it with and without and can't tell any difference. Pretty much that seems to be the case with the Bill Boards as well. It takes a full lap to get the road race slicks up to temp, a mild burn out don't mean squat.

Now the problem may be, I'm not doing the burn out long and hard enough. Without front brake control, not to mention a stick shift, it's all but a waste of time doing a burnout to heat the tires. Get serious or don't go there, I drive around the water myself...
