Default dragging with snow tires

Anyone ever try this? Seems like a dumb question, but they have all the qualities talked about for a good drag radial.

soft soft compound, so it will be harder, but not too hard in the cold weather. and they have really soft sidewalls in the warm weather. Dangerously soft.

I tried a couple of launches in colder weather on my b20 integra and got little traction, but in warmer weather, with low pressure, and after a good burnout...

Any insight?

I raced on snow tires basically the whole summer. I just dropped the pressure down to about 20 psi, did a decent 5 second burnout, launched at 4k rpms and pulled 2.20's. This year im gonna try out some slicks.
