What PSI should I run in my new Slicks?

So I have sold my E.T's to Ducky to help him hook that turbo truck up. With my tourqe off the line I had to step up to straight Hoosier slicks. So my question is I want them to wrinkle like BlueCajuns Avitar, but I also dont like my azz end moving around at the big end. What pressure should I run in these slicks for maximum traction and best 60' time?? I plan on upping my line shot to 100 to test out Red's rod bearing theory.. I really want to be running a forged 370 at the shootout and that will not happen unless Red is correct about rod bearings (my wife does not go for replacing working engines)!! .

i was running 11 psi probably drop a lb next time out

I run a 28x10.5 ET drag.... 8-9 was to little... Truck all over the place... 11-12 to much..... But 11 is a good starting point...

Exactly...

Not sure, They are Hoosier 28X10-16 C07 compound. The same ones Skeet had at HRP Friday night. He did not complain about any movement on the top end of the track, but I did not get to see him launch so I dont know if they wrinkle. To be honest with you if they are not Wrinkle wall I think I have wasted my money. I doubt my truck will hook on stiff sidewall tires. I race at HRP and the track prep is arguably the best in Texas.

Don't know an answer to your question, but i can def. second that HRP has one of the best track preps around. I hooked a 1.81 60ft time on the factory goodyears and 17's.

They're not super tall so you can run a little less than I used to. I ran 16 in my 29.5 X 9's on a 4000 pound car. I'd say somewhere in the 11-12 range. You need a spotter at the track.

i got MT ETs so not the same but i run 17lbs hooks damn good.
