Guys going from BFG DRs to MT DRs

After four sets of BFGs, I've decided to switch to the M/Ts. Has anyone else gone through the same transition? If so, what did you do differently?

PSI?
Launch?
Burnout?

Thanks

I'm running on worn out bfg's and thought about
M/T's . You are running 13's with a 6 cylinder.
Is that true I have never heard of a 6 that fast.

I went from BFG's to MT's, I love the MT's! As far as your questions go:
I run higher pressure w/ the MT's, about 20-22 lbs. as compared to 15lbs.
They need much less of a burnout and I didn't change my launch technique.

20-21 psi (and yes i tested lower down to 15 psi - just worse traction issues). i do a big burnout, enough for smoke to roll out of the fenders. didnt change my launch technique at all. went 1.4 60' twice last time out.
