Unhappy cant chirp my tires on 2nd/3rd

ok i have a 88 TII and i cant chirp my tires thru 3rd.......why????

any of you guys have this problem???

before you guys get on me, i know how to drive stick. it's just that i gotta rev like at 6000 rpm if i wanna break the wheels loose. and then it still doesnt do it the way it probably should. shouldnt i be able to do it at lower rpms.

traction is a good thing... spinning tires causes you to lose drag races...

Just throw some 195/40 's on there and they'll spin
