Pump up the front tire pressures to like 50psi hot... its about 45 psi cold(the reccomended limit), and will be that temp when running since the fronts will be pretty cool going down the strip...

jsut to warn you makes the front end float a little more, but I assume you will already be careful since you have an !swaybar up front.
