you have me thinking here

i generally have a set of tyres for practice and a set for race day.i have two sets of rims.one ali and one mag.dont ask me why,its just the way its gone

on the saturday i got the kart to handle really well by the end of the day and i was happy with the pressures.i was using the ali wheels

come sonday with my race tyres and the mag wheels i wasnt as happy with the way the kart handled(but that was mostly down to pressures i think) and also we felt we needed to start messing about with the pressures again.i was having trouble getting heat into the tyres quickly enough which didnt seem an issue on the saturday

we put this down to it being a bit colder on sunday from saturday but this thread has me thinking.

ive read various threads on this subject but never thought much of it as i didnt think i would notice the difference anyway

any thoughts would be welcome
