Went to the track last weekend and even on my best run I still spun with all four tires at 25psi. I was just wondering how low you can go. Or maybe run outside of the groves, I heard that street tires spin more on vht because I do not heat the tires up and vht is very smooth once it's layed down.
 
what sixty's are you getting. Perhaps you should just get some decent DR's or work on your launch.

You shouldn't go less than 25psi on street tires, there is no added benifit.
 
My sixty foots are about 2 outt 3 1.8 and 1 otta 3 1.7. Not bad, not great but it is shifting into second is when I loose traction. First hooks fine, it's after I put the petal back down in 2nd is when the tires break loose.
