    E85 and extra tyre pressure if she's wet. See you all tomorrow!

      If it's wet, please DON'T do that. That's absolutely the opposite approach to take. If it's wet, run per the tyre placard. If it's dry, I'd argue that way over inflated, you'd be over 50psi after a few laps and driving on the centre of your tyres.

      Plus it's happy laps, really not something to get too carried away with. Somewhere between placard recommendation to +4 psi is bang on for most tyres.

        It's algood mate, tyre gauge on hand to set pressures, I've found anything over 40psi hot the car is a dog.

          Yeah, it'll just skate around on the centres at that point. For a Motorkhana event that pressure is good/got merit. Circuit, it's a tad high.

            Looks like it's going to be quite wet I think I'll hold off going considering I haven't been on a track in I think 3 years + it will be my first time on a track in a RWD car.

              Thanks for organising Paul! Shame the track was a bit wet, the nannies pretty much cut in 99% of the time coming into the straight.

              Looking forward to the next one!
