I run drag 28 psi front, 30 rear.

For auto-x and race it all depends on the course. A set course like nascar where you only turn left four times is different, almost all drivers have the same psi. So it is kindof a hard question to answer.

Many of the Type R guys that run on the famous (I forget the name) race track in VA run a specific psi for each tire. Just FYI!

damn specific psi's for each tire lol. I'm not going that extreme, but should i put a good bit more air in my tires if i am autoxing or on the street and not drag racing?

Yes, you should run higher PSI when racing for better response and less rollover at high lateral G's.

I run Azenis at 42/45 F/R in autox.
