Default question about shifting?

this may be a dumb question...but here it goes. I used to notice my tires chirping a little when i was racing from a stop or dropping a gear. I dont think im doing anything differently that i know of, but recently when i drag or drop a gear the tires dont chirp or anything. its more like im just flooring it, hard to explain but hopefully this is enough info for you guys but i know its my driving, not the car. any advice would help, thanks in advance....

Ian

Aside from more obvious reasons like if you bought new tires..i was thinking it could be from your clutch not biting as hard as it used to?

thanks for input, but i havent noticed any change in the clutch....could it be that im letting the clutch out a little too slow when shifting?
