21 front, 26 rear.  OEM non-high speed spec for radial tires.

Competition manual lists 26 front 28 rear.  This is for earlier cars, 
non-radial tires.

Myself, I've found 26 front, 22 rear to work pretty well.  I've not done 
finer tuning of the pressures.

I've run 30+ at various times.  The ride becomes harsh and the vehicle is 
prone to skittering.
