Default drag radial guys please advise...

Just wondering what rpm to shoot for now that i have some dr's on. Used to, anything above 1500 rpm would just blow the tires off. My times are good, but my 60's are horrible. I have a good clutch and a good rear. What rpm should i be shooting for after a good burnout? And what psi?

Last time out i ran a 13.09 on street tires and with a 2.1 60ft. I really want that 12 sec pass

well, no matter what with Dr's you'll get your 12 second pass. Just try in 500rpm increments. start off at 1500. I think you'll get to a 3000 rpm launch before you actually start to spin worse than your street tires.
