You were thinking the wrong way...need to drop the pressures...
This allows the tyre to move about more...plus science...which heats up and will increase the tyre pressure.
So for instance, I dropped the fronts on mine down to 22psi at combe...after one long run out...came in and they were at 36psi.
Need to find a sweet spot where by once they are up to temp they hit the right psi.
I wouldnt be aiming for much more than 32psi either for track use imho
(once up to temp)
Yes, but if you are driving for a very short amount of time and then stopping after that run you reach a point where no matter how low the pressure is, you can't get enough heat in the tyres I'd have thought. For track use on a full circuit doing multiple laps I agree, but on point to point sprints and hillclimbs that last between 1 and 1.5 minutes max? I'm not so sure.
