yes, very true and as I learn more about tuning tire presure I can take note of my tests to see what the relationships are.

I'll take notes at my Auto_X runs and see if I can figure it all out. If I can determine the factors I could program the relationships and get the program to recommend pressures for various conditions, tire compounds etc.

I was hoping that some experienced racers could help me figure it all out.
