Tyre presures

[itsallyellow]

in this colder weather what sort of pressures should be used in slicks? If you can get any heat into them that is!

Thanks

Try 20-22 and monitor them

IIRC the way to set the tyre pressures correctly is by monitoring the tyre temps, and adjusting that way up or down to get the heat right...


Going to be a bit trial and error in this weather... I'd start a bit lower than usual to try and get some heat into them and see what happens..



I noticed running the 10" rears on the tuscan, if your out first qually, on a cold and damp but drying track, where you would normally run slicks with no bother after a few laps, the 10"'s were still cold and a mare by the end of the session.. with a bit more weight in the cerb you might fair better in a qually session. I need to go back to the 9"s in that situation I just cant get the heat in the 10's and thats during the summer !!!!
