What Tyre Pressures ????

[scoobaroo]

Just wondering what you guys and gals were running today ???

A few pounds make all the difference, as i found out [] to my cost, ala Colin vid, when he posts.

I was running 22 lb all round and car handled ok, into pits and upped them to 30 lb [] back off sharpish and down to 26 lb before i needed the wrecker !!!

Lol may need to alter and play about with mine as well, as we spoke about had a similar exploit, think i was prolly pushing too hard though but Im gonna blame the tyre preasures []

Hmmm thats right Mr Spooks just blame the tyre pressure.

Wonder if you could lift the back wheel off the track again. []

^^^^ lol busted!! []

[scientific steve]

i was rinning offside  32 and nearside  36 psi

as it's a right hand track it's better to run a higher pressure on the side that most of the force is projected onto

or so i've been told

[steve_shaw]

never mind the psi ...........keep the foot down and all will come right eh mate lol....you dont know unless you push your limits...

i was well impressed nice on fella ...steve.

[craig mac]

I was 32 psi all round

No tweaking pressures or shockers for me []

Standard tyres, standard pressures, standard shocks and Tein Springs.

As Steve says just push it and push it, let the diffs do there job, eh Wuz[]

Lol. That's my general feeling too Craig. Especially at the exit of the Chicane. Fling it right and get on the power as it flies over the kerb and let the differentials sort it all out when it lands.

Remember your pressures change hugely when the tyres get hot. Setting them to 30psi after you've been on track may be the equivalent of 25 or 26 when cold. The tyres also won't heat up at the same rate. The outers will likely get hotter, and read higher after you've been out.

[dave_morgan]

p.s. I tend to use 30psi all round. Road and track. Last thing you need is a car behaving totally differently when you're pushing to the limit (IMHO!).
