I did a quick search and didn't find any topics, and I leave for the track shortly. What should I be running on my stock 19" Potenzas?

I hear the fronts should be near 50, and the rears around 30...thoughts anyone?

It's 75 out, 25% humidity.

Won't make much difference.

Frts 50 rears dont go much lower then 32. My 1.9 60fter I had 36-37 in the rear. Launch technique has more to do with it then just tire pressure.

Great! Just wanted to check and make sure I get off on the right foot. Thanks! Times and videos to come! We've got a few G8'rs coming, should be great! Can you tell I'm excited? lol

Can you tell me the best way to launch a stock GT. I am going to Cecil tomorrow for the time out. I would like to make a good showing. Thanks.

Drive around the waterbox and do a 4-5 sec burnout. Put it in sport mode, TC off and floor it on the last yellow light before green.
