It's a VERY bad advice about 120 psi for "whatever" tire especially for size 21 mm. There is a pretty big difference between 21 and 23 mm tires. I don't race on velodromes and I don't consider myself a fat @ 165 lbs. I indeed was a fool for listening guys like you on Slowtwitch about 120 psi "advice" for tubulars. My Tufo Elite Jets exploded because they had pressure 120 psi when my bike hit a crack in pavement. It wasn't actually a big one - just may be 2 inches. But it was enough for rims to bottom and cut tire's sidewalls. I couldn't make a bunny hop because I already took my feet out my shoes, but lucky me it happened near the transition area. I never had a problem with Tufo Elite Jets pumped to 160 psi, but the feeling at this pressure was like riding on rims without tires. Therefore, I decided to follow the 120 psi "advice". My new Vittoria CRONO EVO CS (20 mm) at 180 psi give me a nice feeling comparable to 23 mm Contis GP 3000 pumped to 120 psi.
I would HIGHLY recommend Vittoria CRONO EVO CS for racing. They are not as popular as Vittoria Corsa models since they are relatively new in Vittoria family. But they roll very smooth and they are 100 g (!) lighter than Corsas. 100 g of rotating weight can make a big difference.
P.S. Think twice when you pump a "whatever" 21-23 mm tire to 115-120 psi.
Higher air pressure would have probably made no difference... although rider skill might have ;-)
