Tire Pressure for High Speed Run ?
I will be running my LS2 C6 on the runway at the Dade-Collier airport in South Florida on April 10. See http://www.milemarker-1.com/ for details. I hope to be going in excess of 150 mph. 
What tire pressure should I run in my stock Goodyear runflats? The tires have been used for 11,000 miles and have more than half the tread still on 'em.
Thanx in advance

Found the answer
. . . in the Owner's Manual, of course.
If you will be driving your vehicle at speeds of 175 mph
(282 km/h) or higher, where it is legal, set the cold
inflation pressure to the maximum inflation pressure
shown on the tire sidewall, or 38 psi (265 kPa),
whichever is lower. See the example following.
When you end this high-speed driving, return the tires
to the cold inflation pressure shown on the Tire and
Loading Information label.
