I think the problem lies in the fact that your doing a second gear burnout w/o an LSD. To get second gear burnouts in my experience you have to put your foot to the floor, which in turns biases all power to one wheel. That's probably why your not going straight.
I do first gear burnouts and have an open diff as well. After I get my wheels spinning, i'll let the throttle back. I find that this gets both wheels to spin.
I just ran with slicks for my first time, and when I burned out I stayed pretty straight. However, I just got an alignment done, so that's probably something to consider.

I think the real problem is doing a 2nd gear burnout on street tires period. They only need to be cleaned off not melted with a 2nd gear burnout.
