Tire pressure question
Doing my 4th HPDE this weekend, running stock goodyears. Whats a good starting point for tire pressure? I'm thinking 35lbs front 30lbs back. Thanks for your suggestions. Have problems keeping my front tires from squealing like a pig.

For the F1's I used to use 30F 29R hot I would start around 28.

Unless your car has an understeering problem I would not advise putting that much more pressure in the front than the rear, in fact if your car tends to oversteer which is a definite possibility for a 'vette you'd actually go the other way with slightly less pressure in the front than in the rear. Also important to consider if you're at a track with tight turns you may heat up the fronts more which again might suggest your starting pressure might need to be lower in front.
