Tyre pressure when sprinting
Hi
My mk runs 205 60 13 and 185 60 13, i am going to run super softs for my sprinting events..
It weighs 500kg wuth a busa engine
What sort of tyre pressures do you recommend to use as a starting point?
Always had the mr2 slightly higher to get them to warm up quickers, its a 1 lap sprint with no tyre warming allowed.
Any advice would help
Thanks

I have 205/13 on the back, and 185/13 fronts, and run 16/17 psi
this is only road use, but somewhere to sart with

Thats was probably spelt wrong, or had some grammer, that the "grammer police have to have a moan at

Depends on the tyres, on my MK Indyblade, which weighs a similar weight to yours, On track I use Toyo 888's which I run at 13psi. Contrary to
what you would expect, reading a report from Toyo expert on here some time ago, if your tyres get a little too hot then reduce the pressure. With
these pressure however the grip is superb.
