Prepping ET Streets?

Okay, I have not raced with my ET streets since last October. They are now 1 year old with maybe 15 passes. They have been stored in the garage all winter on their sides.

First trip to the strip this weekend. I could not get them sticky.They smoke a bit but seem pretty hard. Is there anything I should do to get them back to the hot gooey state they used to be?

Simply put heat into them.

1st go-around just underinflate them by 2 psi. Roast them good.. Should work.
