at 11 psi, they were pretty scarry to me. and we are talking hot not cold right? i liked 12-13 psi lowest. if you need to go that low, it is the track, not your car.

i cut a 1.611 60ft time at our 1/8 mile track which has great traction, but the 2 1/4 mile tracks are horrible and i cant get anything better then 1.9
sometimes i get a lucky launch and get high 1.7 or 1.8's but its sliding threw it

on my 26x11.5x16 ET streets i used to use about 13 and it worked fine...a lil wobbly but livable.

Now I have 26x11.5x15 and a lighter car. I use 11 in the left and 10 in the right....works like a charm.
