that's going to cost me at least $100 eh :p

what do you mean by "Add more power/gear lower/much smaller tires"
how do I change gear or add more power? the tires are the stock ones

thanks!
The problem for you is that braking is not only disproportionate but your back wheels have the better rotors. The front brakes are stronger than the back but they are biting into smooth rotors while the weaker rear rotors are biting into drilled rotors. When you do a braked burnout, you are having to over power the rear rotors while keeping the front rotors locked in position.

A lower set of gears in the back or smaller tires will give the engine more of a mechanical advantage for over powering the brakes.
