exactly what you said from above…quoted from LS1tech…

“DO NOT do a burnout. This only makes the tires greasy and does not promote traction. If you think it does, your cars either too slow to matter or you’re a bad driver. You only need to do a quick spin-NOT IN THE WATER BOX- to clean rocks and stuff off the tires. Also, dropping air pressue in you tires doesn’t help, it just cups the tread, making the contact patch smaller.”

I agree with the cleaning them off, but tire pressure plays a role in traction :confused Put 45psi in your tires then try running them at say 25, id guaruntee your 60’ would drop.

I actually did this lol…my street tire pressure is 40psi. Did a run, got a shitty 2.4 60’ (didnt heat the tires up)…then I put them at 22psi, and was still getting 2.4 60’s @ 13.4…one run, cut a 2.3 @ 13.2 :headbang

If you have a brand new clutch and flywheel surface there is no break in. You can go out drive it around for a couple miles and bang gears all you want.
