Bridgestone RE71's 225/50/15 on stock alloys, torque strap on engine pulled very tight, 18 PSI. Very quick track. High RPM launch slipping the clutch, slight wheel spin, no hop. Stage very, [b]VERY shallow (barely turn on the second stage light). This allows your car to roll forward a foot or so without breaking the beams of light to start your time which in turn lowers your 60' and hence, your 1/4 mile time. Old racer's trick.

Best I've managed with that combo is a 2.3. Wish I had something to pump the tires back up for the ride home...then I'd lower them to 20 psi.
