Default what PSI do you run in your tires

Hey,
What psi do you run in your stock tires at the drag track. What set-up works best for you.

I tried playing with pressure and actually got my fastest time @ 32psi on the stock Goodyear F1's. They're about done for so I might drop all the way down to 20psi and try them again. I run 20psi in my MT DR's per MT's recommendation and they hook awesome. MUCH softer compound than street tires though.

I run the same psi at the track as on the street. 35PSI. I have a 35 series 18" tire, so I can't afford to drop the pressure to much. Lower PSI wouldn't really help me much because of the small stiff sidewall.
