968 Clubsport tyre pressures
Hi I recently bought a 968 Clubsport so that I can enjoy a little track day action and save my 02 996 from abuse.
I am due to drive the Grand Prix circuit at Brands Hatch UK on Monday.
Having tracked a 911 Clubsport for a few years I know what to do with tyre pressures etc
Can anyone offer any advice on what HOT pressures I should run on track,the tyres are 255/40/17 on the rear...Also any advice on anything specific to the 968 I should attend to.
Thanks in advance.

I think it has a lot to do with with what tyres you have, and also how the rest of the suspension is set up. Start from 2.5 bar front/rear and adjust depending whether you have too much oversteer or understeer...
For what's it worth, my 944S with 968 M030 sways and Michelin Pilot Sports seemed to handle best using 2.6 bar front and 2.2 bar rear pressure (cold).
