never go below 12 psi on DOT slicks.... as for street tires, I'd say no
lower than 18psi... I actually have never dropped the air pressure on my
street tires when I've gone drag racing...

Subject: DML: Bracket racing and street tire pressure ?!?
If I hit the drags next week, I was thinking of tinkering with the tire
pressure on the rears. I have normal street tires on my 93 CC 2WD 5.2.
Of all of you that have been out to the drags, what do you do to your
tire pressure in the rears? how low do you go? how low can I safely go
on street tires (for a 1/4 mile)? I'm just wondering what is safe, and
also wondering if there is extra traction to be had if you go to say 15
PSI or so...
Thanks!
Kevin
