15lbs of air cold and 5 second burnout leaving line at 6000 rpms and getting 1.65-70 60 fts. Leave on Nittos gets me 1.72's leaving at 4500

I will try 13 to 14 lbs next time and should do a little better.

16" ET Streets with a good 5-8 second burnout with 12psi cold then I leave at 5K+. It's been netting me a pretty consistent 1.72 60', but I'm still getting some spinning so I'm going to take a look at my pinion angle.

16" ET Streets, 15psi, holding burnout about 4 sec, leaving off idle or footbraking doesn't make much difference in my car. Net result - 1.57 best short time, avg 1.59-1.61.

I start out at 15psi cold and lower it if I'm not hooking. My car is an A4. I blip the throttle as I roll through the water. Roll out a couple feet. Bring the RPMs quickley to 5000 and shift to 2nd gear. I hold it for a couple seconds, till I see white smoke boiling out pretty good. Then spin out of the burnout. Best 60ft is 1.48 on 26x10.5x16 ET streets.

Are you supposed to get ET Streets wet? I didn't think you were supposed to roll through the water box.

You'll have a hard time if you don't since they are so sticky. Not really the same issue as standard "grooved" tire throwing water since their grooves are so little.
