[Fot] Tokyo R888 Pressures

[Jim Norlin]

Darn autocorrect on the phone - anyway, thanks for the help.

Here's what we found out.  We've been running Hoosier R-6's and I was 
hoping to get a final weekend out of this set.  Several flat spots ended 
that plan and the Toyo's were the only thing available at the track.

Toyo says 32-38 psi hot, so we started at 26 cold figuring to hit close 
to the low end of this range.  After three sessions, the tires were not 
showing any wear at all on either shoulder and the wife was complaining 
about being able to lock the fronts under braking really easily.  That's 
when I sent out the message.  We dropped to 20 psi cold, which ended up 
at 25 hot.  The tires are now showing wear across the entire surface and 
her fast time was slightly improved.  More testing awaits in the spring.

Have fun at the Kas Cup.
