We normally run 315 radials, but when we DO run slicks, we run the tire the OP is asking about. Our car race ready is about 2800lbs on slicks. They are mounted on beadlocked 12" wheels and we DO run tubes. We normally run them at 12-13 psi at that weight. A heavier car will need more or it will absolutely CRUSH the sidewall at the hit

Remember....MORE air, puts MORE rubber on the ground because it flattens the tire out and stiffens up the sidewall. Low air, lets the tire "cup" in the middle and has less rubber on the ground.

We have been 1.09 in 60ft on this tire and 4.30s in the 1/8th at 173+

A high hp car that hooks hard and crushes the sidewall will beat the sidewalls out in short order. Our slicks are DONE for us in 12 passes, but would still be fine for lower hp stuff.
