You want as much air in them as you can get away with, that was with 002/003's.

I've gone down to 11.5lbs, but that got scary on the big end with the slightest cross breeze. 67 Barracuda street car, 408, e85, 1.38 60', 6.44 @105.9 in the 1/8 mile, 10.19 @130.5 in the 1/4...so far....

Seems to be the best compromise between a good hook and a white knuckle top end charge. MoPower..... Better to be a racer for a moment than a spectator for a lifetime.
