I avoid burnouts on street tires (line-lock or brake stand kind). What I do is drive around the water, and after getting the car pointed straight and square with the starting line, I make sure I'm not in any water tracks, and then mash the gas hard to burn the tires slightly (this removes any water traces, rocks, etc and helps clean the tires) before I stage and make the run.

They got better as I went down, until about 29, then they started getting slower again. I usually run them at 31 now.
A 17 with a taller sidewall might be different though.
