[Fot] Racing tire pressure

[BOB KRAMER]

I'm still early in learning how best to set up my TR4A but I have found that 
30 front and 31.5 rear works OK with Hoosier Speedsters on my car. I started 
our 30 all across and gradually upped the rears. Without the lower front 
pressures turn in was too light. I had the car weighed the last time out and 
I'm going to do some adjustments so my pressures may be meaningless to 
someone else.
