Default just ordered Street DRs

Just ordered the g-Force T/A Drag Radial 2

275x40x17 is there any one that can give me some helpful hints that they have noticed with these tires? I have an open track day coming up and although I will be able to play around with them a lot that day I would like to have some starting point.

Thanks

Start with tire pressue around 20 and adjust if needed.

During burnout try to hold at least 3 second when you see the smoke coming out so nome form than really 6 second burnout. count in your head.

What your MPH on once you get them rolling druing burnout, keep around 45 mph
