Default 1/4 mile run tyres?

Definite pattern in the 1/4 mile Thread. Awsome tool created we have. (sorry yoda, too many movies lately)
What rubber and how much PSI do people run? esp interested in time slip equiped people and people on the AUFALCON.com.au 1/4 mile times thread. List of mods wouldn't hurt. :
Usefull in the quest for faster times. Thanks All!

On the day I ran (in my first ever noob run) I had my tyres at close to 38psi : I was later informed to lower this. I also had a full tank of fuel, the spare tyre and a couple of bags of junk in the car.

The times I did were with hurricane headers, exhaust, t series intake and Unichip. Time slip should be in my gallery I think. If not its on photobucket under loxxr6.

I think most know my mods. I also ran at 38psi so I'll be dropping them a bit next time as wheel spin is now starting to be a small issue at launch.....a rareity for auto I6 cars.
