I think he's back in an S

 

Oh, we've run those on the FactorX car; they're radials. Yea, 32 hot is around where we run that tire (IIRC).

I've never driven on the R6 though.

 

You are so fired, you're 9 seconds off a Volvo 670 semi truck!


RA1, R888 both like around 32psi hot in many different cars ive tested on.

R6's like a little more pressure -mid to high 30's -same ballpark of a lot of "street" tires.





"The car's loose... DO SOMETHING!!!!!!!!!!!"

 

you did that track in a semi 3:08? You should have taken a video of that.

 

is 5 camera crews inside the cab, on the track, and in a chase car good enough for you?

-its coming...

 

Hurry up!

Instruction really helps and I believe courage carries you the rest of the way. Even after learning the line, braking points and when to accelarate, getting over the fear that I will lose it and possibly get hurt has certainly helped my times. If it doesn't help minimize my total lap times, I'm convinced it helps me push through certain sections much faster.

I'm sure my car is much faster than the times I have posted and once I have the car dailed in and get more track time under my belt, I'm sure I'll do much better.

Please continue to post more recommendations on tire pressures. What tire pressure gauges are you using?

 

Which one you use is not as important as it is to use the same one all the time.

However, they don't last forever, so it's a good idea to have a few and double check them against each other every so often, just to make sure none of them have gotten too messed up.

Or you could get a really good one and carefully calibrate it often, but that's way too expensive unless you are talking about a pro team.

 

Nah that's good enough

Can't wait to see it.

 

I didn't know they went bad.

What brand should I be looking into? What brand is most reliable and most durable? Is digital better?

 

Is there anything that doesn't?

They aren't all calibrated exactly the same in the first place, which is why it is good to use the same one when trying to figure out whether your pressures are the same today as they were last time.

Some of them are also more sensitive to temperature, humidity, and other such effects.

And as the little parts inside wear out, they can slowly drift in calibration. Or you could drop it, and it could quickly shift in calibration.

Anyway, I recommend using one that has a flexible hose. They are easier to read. And also it should have a pressure release valve, so you can lower the pressure just by pushing a button.

I have a digital one and a couple of mechanical ones. There's one mechanical one I prefer over the others, but that's because it fits my hand the best.
