My spec stage 2 seems to slip after big burnouts after consecutive runs. Is this normal? It is really starting to piss me off!

do you "stay in the burnout" after your tires begin to hook up-- you know when they start to grab do you force the burnout to continue with a little brake pressure or are you on a linelock and you can't tell? if so that's the problem. The moment they start to grab you've got to get out of it or you are wasting your clutch. Do you "dry hop", that doesn't help either if so.

I have been doing second gear burnouts, while they are wet. THey really didnt start to grab, and I am just holding the brake down, no linelock yet.

well, you are apparently glazing your clutch so I'd back off on the burnout a little if I were you. Maybe just go until you get 'wisps' from both tires.
