Re: tyre pressure on track and road

36/42 was what I felt comfortable with on the SV, its all down to you at the end of the day, what you feel nice with. Play from what it says upwards, when you don't feel as comfortable, go back to how you did feel comfortable.

Track temps are something I don't know about sorry.

For tack you want to be about 32Front 31Rear. Yes, unlike on the road, you want slightly more in front than rear.

Re: tyre pressure on track and road

I'm similar to blue's pressures. 31F 30R but its all down to personal choice and other variables like track temp and any moisture.
