Hi all.
I was testing last sunday at priory park (its close..)
having suffered with various failures since getting this kart i finally ha d afault free day (ish)

However i got the distinct feeling that everyone else could carry a lot more speed throught the corners than me, this is after 10 laps or so, so they tyres should be up to temperature.
The thing im having difficulty figuring out is pressures.
The kart is a tonykart/rotax max senior, running just under weight, and im running SL8's for test>
Track temp approx 12-14c, What pressure should i be running at???? and what temp should tyres be at when tested in the pit lane fresh off the track??

all help much appreciated!!!!!!
