RE: Best ET trick
just be aware that increasing the front tire pressure reduces the vehicle roll out and can make you red light lots easier, so keep this in mind too.
and you don't want to stage deep to get the best ET, you stage as shallow as you can to get the best ET, deep staging helps the reaction times but hurts the ET.

RE: Best ET trick
The last time I went to the track I adjusted my rear tire pressure several times and it only seemed to hurt my times.
Yeah but it does tend to differ from vehicle to vehicle...
