Phil, I'd start the day with 38F/34R, and adjust from there.  You might
need more up front to counter rollover.  You might need less out back to
fine-tune the oversteer.  You're running my FM front swaybar, which
really helps take out oversteer.  I ran CS with pressures slightly
lower, but I was on Kumho Victoracers.

Subject: Miata autocross tire pressures?Later this month, I will start
in autocrossing a Miata. 
Somehow I think the 15/20 tire pressures I used on the Lotus are not
going to hack it.
We have a local PAX street-tire class, which I will be running in ES
trim.
The setup:
1994 Miata with maximum negative camber.
14 x 6 stock wheels
Falken Azanis TR-615 195-60-14 
Flyin' Miata front sway bar with Mazda Motorsports heim
links.
All of our events here are on asphalt.
Where should I start with air pressure?
