What pressure is common for Maxton where "V" and "Z" street tires are
common?
How about at El Mirage? It would seem like lower pressure would be better on

>From what I've gathered, mostly on threads on this list, surface is the
first factor in tire pressure. Maxton's concrete generates the best traction
and
therefore the most heat. On the other end, The Salt has the average least
traction, and therefore the least heat. I remember some LSR veterans saying
that between Nitrogen in the tires and the cooling effect of the high-moisture
Salt, there wasn't any negligible pressure rise FOR MOST CARS. Take into
account HP, Weight, speeds, your opinion here.
Considering how much we invest in our toys, and our safety, I think
practically all LSR vehicles should run Nitrogen. It's economical too, saves
the
insides of those expensive tires, you take care of the outsides.
As for V, Z, W, or Y tires, I run them all and right at the factory max.
