Better new times but they still stink

What kind of 60' times can you get with them and what pressure do you run them at @ the track? Do you do a dry burnout or just touch the waterbox with them? I'm hoping to get my 60's into the 1.8's with these tires.

i love my mickey thompsons' sportman pro's. i had a 325 hp motor before and still running the 7.5 rear w 3:73 ( came with the car), my best 60' was 1.65 with an 8.04 1/8 mile @ 89 mph.

i stayed away from the water, did my one legged burnout and pulled up to the line, no dry hop. i ran my pressure at 10-14 #. it pulled the left front tire off the ground. no suspension upgrades or nothing, just tired ***** shocks and v-6 springs (orginal v-6 car). i guess i was just lucky i have never had to really search for traction with these tires. and i dont even have a tube in them as they recommend and/or require.
