How do I warm up the tires quickly. I tried to go left and right, it doesn't work too good

Basically, you can't. When the NASCAR boys are weaving back and forth, they don't build very high temps in the tires either. (But they do quickly scrub off all of the pickup that has accumulated on the tires during the caution period or pace laps.) You could heat the tires quickly by running the car up to about 100 mph and spinning it to a stop, but that's probably not a very high reward/risk maneuver... ---Jim Sokoloff
