      I’ve seen some people mention 30psi, and other 34psi. I ran 30psi this past weekend.

      I shoot for cold 29psi or whatever the OEM figure is, and 35-36psi hot.

      A good tip is to check the tire sidewalls to see where the tire is contacting the road. You want to get the whole tread, but not the sidewall hitting the road. Of course, check and adjust immediately after leaving the track.

      Last time I ran about 33-34 psi hot.

      PZero Corsas should be run at 32 hot, according to Tom O’Dell; this was part of the discussion after a few of us chunked fronts at Chuckwalla. I’d previously run mine at 34 hot; anything above that and they start to feel a bit greasy.

      As RW said, 32 hot, so starting at 28 cold and then working from there. I will usually get from 28-36 degrees within 3 laps come into pits and bleed off to get back to 30 and then do the same again within 2 laps to get to a 31 hot. All track and environmentally driven so your ranges may be different.

      Thanks! Makes my last session make sense now.

      Interesting. I will try a lesser hot temp next time, but I have never heard as low as 32psi. This last weekend at CA Speedway, I followed 36psi hot and the tires were great. At the Viper Experience at Las Vegas Motor Speedway, they ran the P Zeros @ 50psi hot!

      What is everyone running for tire pressures on the track cold/hot?
