You'll have to experiment on the launch speed, but here;s a way to dial in your nittos.
Start at 24lbs. Heat them well. They're not ready untill you see smoke in the rear view mirror. Hammer it from 1000 rpm. If you spin, drop the pressure by 2lbs on your next pass. Somewhere between 18 - 22 lbs you won't spin and your 60' will feel awesome. Then experiment with different launch speeds. try 1500, 2000 and 2500 (if you can go that high) and see what happens. if you start to spin at higher launch rpms, drop the pressure another 1 or 2 lbs and see what 60' you cut.
