Only if you burn to far out. they have a recommended procedure and if you follow it there is no problems.
2. What is the proper burn out procedure for Hoosier drag tires?
ANSWER: With Hoosier's "high traction" compounds, we have found the following burn out procedure to work for most cars. We recommend rolling through the water box to wet the tires. Start the burn out. Once the tires start to "haze", start to slow the burn out down and proceed to the start line. The goal of the burn out is to clean all debris off the tires and heat just the surface of the tread. Again this procedure will work for most cars, but fine tuning the procedure for your car may be needed.
I generally go through the lights and stop the burn out after the rear tires pass the staging point so I sit in fresh rubber when I launch. Remember I do not have a lot of power.
