viewing the video from last night, during the first few feet of the launch , there is a light whispy grey smoke coming out from under the car. its hard to see if is off the tires though. the tires have a white stripe and appear that it hooks. any ideas and possible fixes? is it possible to get tire smoke with just a slight tire slip? thanks Dave
edit: upon further review its only on the drivers side

Most cars leave a Haze as they go down the track from what i've seen.

Dave, I noticed that too but I just dismissed it as tire smoke from the burnout. Sometimes if the burnout is real smokey (and you did a pretty long burn-out) there will still be some smoke under the car and up in the wheelwell and above the axle. When you take off it just kinda gets left behind.
