burnouts in second gear. Tires are spinning at much higher rate of speed. They get hotter a lot quicker and you'll avoid wheel hop while doing the burnout. Just make sure to keep rpms high while doing burnout. No need to do a big top fuel burnout. Once you start seeing a little smoke you're good unless you just want to please the crowd. I would try launching around 4500 rpms first pass and work your way up or down from there. If the track is prepped well you might be launching harder next pass. :
