    Mine did it once at the lsx shootout in st louis. It was because I didn't have time to warm the rear at the track. Got stuck in some traffic and when I got there they had already called my class. Drove straight the stagging lanes, probably waited only about 20 minutes and then into the water box. I did a short spin to get the tires wet, pulled out of the water and did my regular burnout, only the right tire was spinning. It was my worst et and worst 60ft. If I tow to the track, I unload the car now and do just like I used to, put the car on the jack and warm the rear. If you drive to the track you generally don't have the problem as the rear is warm when you get there. I never had that problem when I drove to the track and then changed my tires to dr's at the track and then to stagging. Now I don't pull out of the water and do my burn out. Its all done in the box and then smoke out of the box and start letting off the peddle as I'm coming out of the water, that way you don't load the rear so hard as it starts to hook. I ran at least 10 passes after that happened and its never happened since with this procedure.
