Starting tire press for track
Finally getting her to the track with the mods all sorted now
Suggested starting tire pressures?
One less thing I'll have to sort thru as I can only do Friday at mid Ohio and not the whole weekend

thanks for the link...
i understand far more than what was discussed though... as for adjustments
what i was looking for was a 3.6 T track prepped speciffic setup on dot -R compound tires
such as rule of thumb to keep fronts and rears close to equal or have a 5 psi gap f to r
not gonna have many sessions and would like not to waste 2 of only 3 or 4 sessions
trying to dial in the JIC cross settings and the new adjustable bars

^^^^ You'll likely need more than a few track days to really dial in the tire pressures vs. ambient and the JIC's. Each car, tire, track, driver are different. The links below may be useful on DOT tire pressures along with a tire pyrometer? If not I gave it my best shot.

Which R compound tires? Michelin Cups do not want the same pressure as an R6 hoosier for instance
