ok got my 26x10x15 mickey thompson et drag slicks....fit great...actually room for more tire....got them on tsw revos
i tested them around the dealership with 30lbs of air and they still hooked like hell!
my question is how should i launch with them.....
how hard of a launch can the drive train handle?
and what kinda air pressure should i run at the track? im guessing about 14lbs...sound right? these are drag slicks...not drag radials....
what rpm should i launch at?
thanks guys

I assume you're on a stock clutch. The stock clutch will take the beating...not the trans or the rear end. You'll be fine launching hard all day on the stock clutch.
Start the slicks around 16-17 psi and drop them as needed for traction.
