If you're spinning the tires and the smoke isn't rolling, then either the tires are crap or the surface isn't rough enough to heat the tires. You also need to make sure you have enough speed in the rear tires to get the heat built up enough.

Next question is if you have a manual or an auto. Either way, I would advise getting a front brake lock to keep the rear brakes from slowing the wheels down during the burnout (and to keep from burning up the brakes).

BTW, with enough power, you don't need brakes to sit in one spot and burn the tires into a cloud of smoke.
