[Spridgets] Air Pressure & Lug Nut Torque

[Allen Hefner]

Don't forget that the recommended tire pressure in the manuals is at 32
degrees. You usually add 1 PSI for every 10 degrees above freezing. Nobody
seems to know that anymore. The manuals just say ## PSI cold. I always just
add 5 PSI to the recommended pressure.
