Default Question About Racing At The Track

I have a 2002 Monte Carlo SS. I would like to know what tire pressure my front tires should be at while I am racing at the drag strip?

Thank you. I guess just trial and error is the best method right?

Cowboy seems right, with stock tires 22 lbs seem to be right on with a good track. I would still try something lower just to see what happends...
