Default Track Tire Pressure

Any recommendations for starting tire pressures for a non-Z51 C8 (Season 4) for those that have been to the track? 24 and 23 pounds are recommended by GM on the Sport 4s.

I don't know anyone that knows Goodyear anymore. I can't begin to demonstrate how corrupt all of their retailers are.

A serious racer will drop the silly 20" down to 18" where real compounds are available. Nobody races with 20" rims
