I'd have to look at the log books, but I'm pretty sure we run about 24 psi. We've only had trouble hooking on the worst tracks, under bad conditions. And it's a 9 second Stocker in good air. It hooks well even at AA/SA weight.

Coach, we had a lot of trouble around 16-17 lbs with these tires, inconsistent. Tried many shocks, bar setups, everything. Finally raised the pressure in increments to 21 lbs. and never failed to hook since. This was a '69 Nova bb E/SA 3570lbs. and we ran this tire on a 10" rim.

try running them around 24-26 anything below 20 in a 3500 lb. car you will spin on a marginal track.

I've had two sets of Hoosier 9x30's, and have always run Goodyears since. Had no wear or consistency from the Hoosiers.
15 1/2 psi minimum to 16 1/2 psi maximum on my 3250# ride at mid 10's.
But, I'm a bracket racer.

I've found that the Goodyear D-4A is best all around for hot to cool tracks, with a very light burnout on hot (115*+) tracks. They do make better compounds for very hot track conditions.

Been running them since '01 or so?

There are usually 8 compounds available in Goodyear 9x30's
