I am really not sure about this lack of performance. We are running extremely high pressures now as are other classes. Pf is a very low grip low abrasion surface. I think we are running only on 70 percent of the tyre at say 22 psi so only 70 percent is being scrubbed in. I wonder whether on new tyres 10 psi on brand new would be more suitable to get the whole tyre scrubbed in then going up to the higher required tyre pressure. We bolted a set of wk 28 tyres on at pf which were off Phil Smiths Kart on session 3 on saturday and found them really bad for the first 3 laps worse than our wk 17 tyres from the prev session but almost matched our time bar 1 tenth from the previous session at the end. Unfortunately Smith who had our wk 17 tyres fot that session had a mechanical issue after a few laps but did say they were more grippy earlier than the 28 tyres !
