Tyre Pressures
Please can someone give me direction on track day tyre pressures.
Car is an MK Indy, approximately 475kg.
Running either Toyo R888. Front 185/60/13 and rears 205/60/13. Also trying slicks of the same size.
Any ideas for a starting point.
Thanks

Try 18 psi all round -- if car tends oversteer try 16 front 18 rear then 16 front 20 rear

Cold road tyres.

I run 17 Psi hot. To get this pressure all round I usually set 14 Psi cold on my outside tires and 14.5 - 15 cold on my inside tyres (depending on
whether its a clockwise or anti clockwise circuit).
