Autocrossing a 9K

It's been over 30 years but I kinda want to do it again.
My 9K is hardly the ideal tool to attack the cones, but I don't have another ride and have no delusions of placing well.
The car is reasonably prepared. It is a '96 CSE with a Sachs Sport Chassis and SAS bars (30K ago). The engine mounts are all new (under 1 year): One solid, one stock on the bottom, one stock, one poly up top. Tranny mount is one yr old. Control arm bushes are under 1 year old, poly.
Tires are 205/60x16 Bridgestone RE960As. Have used them on a track day and a driving school and they are OK. I'll peel some mileage off them on an auto-x.
Any hints/tips on tire pressures with this set-up? I'm thinking about 42 front, 36 rear but have no real idea.
Any other input is welcome.
TIA.
