Quick Question... Should be Simple to Answer:P Well Today I was on my way to the car wash and decided before the car was clean I wanted to do a little burnout haha.
I let it rip a bit from a light and it started Pourin smoke
like any other f-body car would lol.
Anyways I decided to take the same way back from the car wash and wanted to see what kind of damage i left to the pavement, there was some nice lines, BUT!!! I noticed that the right hand side didn't kick in till a foot after the left side, it's got me kind of worried..is my posi screwed? or is this what they normally do? I didn't hear any weird noises or such.
Anybody who can help me out here?

You probly dont have posi. does your car have TCS? i know if you opt to not have the TCS they give you a lsd rear. jack one tire up, spin it, witht he tranny in neutral ebrake off, if it spins you have a lsd rear and no wrys thats normal.
It has a posi and is probably fine. Sometimes depending on the road surface and angle of the road it will do that. If you didn't have a posi or it was dead it would have only left one tire mark all the way down the road.

Before doing a burnout I would do a slight brakestand off the e-brake to get all the gears in mesh. Sometimes the torsen rear in these will do as you described unless everyting is in synch before doing the burn out.
