? about mt drag radials on track
Try a 5-7 second hard burnout first and adjust from there.
The amount of PSI will often depend on your suspension setup, and definatley depend on the power you are putting down. You dont want too little pressure. You want to run as much pressure as you can without spinning down the track. The more pressure you have the more MPH you will have.

But usualluy, I would start around 20-22 and then go UP from there, till your 60' starts to suffer, then back off 2 psi. Thats usually the best way I've found.

i guess ill play devils advocate. I run mine at 13-15psi, and i do a long 2-3rd gear burn out. I also run on a track thats usually not very well prepped. Works great for me, leaving on the foot brake under vacuum 60' 1.69 on stock suspension and a crap tranny

Same here but we had a 99 camaro with completely stock suspension. Stock TA,PHB, adjustable LCAs for the 325 drag radials. I run the tires at 15 cold on a 10in wheel. I always do a 1-2-3 burnout. MPH is what gets the heat in the tires.
Best 60ft 1.29 but averaged 1.31s all the time. It is all about the combo...This was on a 325/50/15 MT drag radial.

I run my 275/60/15 at 18 psi, 2-3 second burnout in 2nd and roll to the line. Best of 1.52 60 foot off the footbrake at 1800 rpm.
