If you pour some antifreeze over and under your right rear tire you should be able to powerbrake and do a hellacious burnout if you keep turnin 'em (until the antifreeze burns up....by them you'll have the tire getting hot and sticky). I've also bought silicone spray lubricant, VERY SLIPPERY, it should be enough to get started and nearly anything will burn away once your tire gets going for a little bit. You could also bump up against a curb with your front tires and try to power brake.

Another thing to do is to way overinflate your rear tires to about 60 psi before you do it (or the maximum inflation of 44 for most tires), that should help reduce the section width of the tire that's contacting the road and help spin 'em, also reducing the air in your tires may help because you reduce the overall diameter of the tire which in effect "increases" the mechanical advantage of your gear ratio because there is less diameter to turn and since your tires are so skinny you may be able to overcome the extra rubber that's contacting the road.
Just some ideas, good luck!

ok, here's my plan. Inflate the tires to maximum psi. Spray a little puddle of gear oil or silicone spray in front of the tires. Roll up, spin em over once or twice. Then roll up a few feet, then LET ER RIP!!!:D

Hey josh, make sure to tell us how the burnout goes, i had a Mercury Zephyr with an auto 2.73 gears and 3.3L six and was a slug that i got to do a hellacious burnout with 225 width tires with the silicone spray lubricant and it smoked up a good area with that one tire :D The funnest and funniest burnout i've ever done and most memorable.
Happy burning,
