Alright, we have everyone finally confirmed and ready to go for next saturday.
Make sure you have tyre pressures and fluid levels checked.

Tires and fluids checked. Now just have to get my wheel bearings fixed before then

Bring the +1 along?

I don't think that will go down well If anyone is interested in taking my spot I guess you can let me or Clay know.

Depends on how hard you're going drive

36-40psi. Most of the time I recommend 40psi and make changes from that at next event depending how it felt. The higher pressure will give marginally less grip and the tyre will overheat sooner (shouldn't really happen at happy lap pace), but will be more progressive should you overcommit (will slide sooner, but more progressive) and give marginally more protection to the sidewall/outside front tyre when its leaning through corners.

I ran 36psi last weekend at QR, will probably stick with that as I'm only out there to circulate. IMO, if you're more inclined to chuck the car around, go higher.

I run 40 all round, all year. Will check them Friday and that will last me until next Happy Laps My tyres always look pretty shredded afterwards but tbh they are getting on a lot now. This will be the last session for them.
