Default BFG burnout questions.

I am going to the track for the first time with my new gforce 225 45 14's on my 10psi d16z6 heavy eg coupe and want to be somewhat prepared with what I should try first. How much of a benefit will I get from heating them up, is it worth it? How long? Should I use water box, the officials trip about radials sometimes, just roll through it and hope I dont kick to much water up? How high do people typically have to launch these tires? Any guesses on what kinda 60's should be possible on a 2500 pound car with around 200whp with these tires. Thanks!
