Going to the track need advice.! plz?

Going to the track tonight and need some advice on tire pressure I did a search and got answer between 17-27 psi in the rear. I am on some crappy Kuhmo's! I want to just get rid of them but will just wait till they wear out. What pressure should I be running? Thanks everyone.

sounds exciting bro run the car to full potential

People say to run much lower pressure but I spun a lot more on the kumhos on my last fd when I did that. If you have no way of filling up the tire again start off at normal and then take it down a few each run.

I think it was 20 where I just spun all the way through 2nd. Id try 28 and then 25

I believe he's going to the "Drag" track not a "Road Course" track.

Thanks for the input guys, but don't know about the 2nd responce lol but helpful info for me later when I do my tracking event in July -=]. I think 27 psi would be a good location for my pressure. Hopefully if I need to fill up I will just run to the gas station and do it and get back in. I will post results sometime tonight or early tomorrow. Once again thanks!
