Leave the line a little easier. It's cold and your on street tires. You probably spun like hell to the 2.2

Put the car in drive not overdrive also. And if you are trying to manually shift it, let it shift itself

Best thing is to get over being intimidated. When you go to do your burnout put medium pressure on the brakes and spin them to about the 1/8 mile or so. Then they will be good and hot and hook.

























Kidding of course.

Serious:

Put the trans in D, do a quick burnout to clean the tires, and play around with your launch RPM. See what gives the hardest launch with the least wheel spin.
