for drag racing, you should try 10-18psi. Beware of the top end as the
car will handle funny. Not funny haha but funny when you get off the
throttle. Torque steer is prevalent. 

.875 RT is pretty slow in the competitive world. Anywhere .500 and under
is considered good. You need to figure out where your launch RPM is best
at before you can expect to get better times. You also probably will want
to figure out how to feather the throttle to keep it accelerating hard
while not spinning the tires. A slight tire slip is fastest to 2nd gear.
it should get better with practice. GL!
