    Cup2R Tires Road Atlanta - Managing Pressure at HPDE Track Event

    I have the tools and can get the help to take pressures and temps in the hot pit during a session. The question I have is how I should handle the car on the in lap. I’m thinking it would be best to run it at 10/10’s or thereabouts and only dial back enough to enter the hot pit safely...

    Full Throttle Fall Fest with SCMC and TrackClubUSA

    Hey guys, I need a little help getting my new AIM system up and running. It starts, but runs for just a few laps and shuts down. It’s not capturing any data or video. I’m sure it’s something simple but I’m stumped. Any of you who use the AIM Solo 2 DL who could offer some assistance? Much...

    Cup2R Tires Road Atlanta - Managing Pressure at HPDE Track Event

    I know some folks use/trust the OE TPMS. And I know AIM has a Motorsports level product. At this price ($30) you might just take a flyer.

    Thanks, Bill. We do our best. 😎What hot pressures do you see from 25-26 cold? How long are you staying out?

    Cup2R Tires Road Atlanta - Managing Pressure at HPDE Track Event

    Depends on the tire and how many laps I’ll be running. In an ideal circumstance, I’ll be able to get up to temp quickly and have a fast setup that lasts a full session. Not easy.Let's say I’m on Cup2’s. I want hot pressures to be 33. So I’d likely start off at 25. That gets me a fast...

    So if I have been seeing pressure gains in the 8 lb range, what should I expect from dehumidified air?

    Track Tips/Advice/Strategies/Findings

    You handled that the right way. 100% by the book. And, I applaud you.Another (slightly less friendly) approach, might have been to get alongside as much as possible and take an inside line into the corner. Nearly everyone understands that as the right time to allow the pass. Even those...
