What gear for burnout with 727

I have been doing my burnouts in 2nd gear. The reason I ask this question is I've considered doing it in 3rd. Reason being I hit the limiter so fast and then have to back off. But if I back off too far it starts to hook and pushes the car. My spotter says it actually skids the front tires.

Any of you start in 3rd gear?
