Default right side slower during burnout

i have been trying to figure out my launching and traction issues, unfortunatly i have only been able to have one 2 second video of my burnout, but from looking at that and from what someone told me watching my burnout on sat night the left wheel gets spinning nice and fast and smokey but the right side seems to go slower, doesnt get as smokey and takes a little longer to get spinning. Is this a sign of my posi going out, or something else wrong with the rear end, or is this okay, obviously i dont know much about rearends? Is there anything i can/should check? I'm doing the burnouts starting in the water box and with the shifter in 2
