Well, here we are again late at night. This time before our high speed driving event with greenflag at laguna Seca bright an early (Monday) tomorrow AM, Another early get up. Sorry for the incontinuities in my response last night (read that 2 glasses of wine too much).
My personal preference is to keep the rears at 36 and to use normal cruising fo with factory specs for your front tires. In my case it is front TP = 33. Then adjust the fronts upward to taste. i.e., add more TP for less push. BTW understeer is not all bad and may save your bacon someday when you find yourself entering a trun at a much higher speed than you intended. Call it a SYB (Save Your Butt) factor.
BTW we had a great time at the Cal Poly San Louis Obispo autox today. Actually it was an enduro autoX event in which we ran multiple laps. Wahoo.

For daily driving, what would you put your TP at if you want to maintain performance?

38 F 35 R? Or higher? TIA!
