That's usually my COLD starting tire pressure, and I ALWAYS use shoe polish at autox! Good advice! The shoe polish method is excellect for tuning your front tires, however i've found that rear tire pressures have more to do with ability to rotate than maximum grip. In fact, less grip in the rear is good, you almost want to replace your tires with shopping cart casters for FWD autox.
