Help! Track tyre pressures - urgent!
Can you help? I'm doing a track day very soon in my MY01 JDM WRX (bug eye) and need to know what (cold) pressures to run. I've been told that higher pressures reduce understeer and tyre wear, though I'm not unrealistic about this. The car has 205/50?/16's. Thanks.

I find that pressures of about 5 psi above normal road use work for me, the tyres don't get too hot either, you have to dabble a bit, different cars and drivers need different things.....
Do keep a check on them though, it's amazing how they'll go up when they get warm...
