i see a lot about bike set up and other things that are good for track days or racing, but nothing on tire pressure....tire pressure is a key to keep your tires at the best temperature for adheason to the track....we use to have a dunlop rep at all the loudon races and the best rule of thumb i ever had on tire pressure was the 10% number..
after a session out on the track, immediately check your tire pressure..it should be 10% higher than when u started..if its higher, than your starting pressure is too low and the tire is heating up too much.....if its lower than 10% than your starting pressure is too high and the tire isnt heating up enough
example, before practice or track day..check both pressures..it your at 30 in the front and 36 in the rear then after a practice session your front should be 33-34 and the rear 39-40...if its higher than those numbers then add more air (go up 2 psi) if its lower then go down 2 psi...and check them again before and after the session...
