Well, I finally got the Camaro to the track last night and only got to make one pass. I heated the tires until they started to smoke then rolled out and up to the line. I footbraked the car at only 1800rpm, launched and blew the tires off the line all the way thru second. I set the pressure at 16psi, per M/T's recommendation over the phone. I had a 1.9 60' time. They should have some potential after I get everything sorted out. When I spoke with the M/t guy, he mentioned that I could go down to 12psi if need because they have a really stiff sidewall. Oh well, we'll see what happens next time. FYI, they stick pretty well on the street though, much better than the KD's which was to be expected.

Good news. I'll look at them after I get a couple paychecks...
