Mike,
Tammy's car has EBC Greenstuff pads. Seems to be the happy medium between a street and track pad. I use them year-round on all our daily drivers and have for years. They worked well at Blackhawk the week before for my wife. It's an experiment on the Boxster, as pretty much no one has any experience with them on the track. We'll see how they work at Road America this week!
I'm not sure I had the tire pressures quite right on the car, she wasn't putting that much heat into them, maybe 1 or 2 psi tops. The track temp wasn't very hot either, I measured it at 75F towards the end of the last session.
I'm just like you, trying to figure out what pressures I need to run. I want to say the pressure was 32 psi hot all around right when she came off the course with exception of passenger side rear which was closer to 33 psi and a bit hotter on the inside tread of the tire (measured with IR thermometer). Otherwise, all the tires had the same temp within a few degrees across the treat from inside to middle to outside at this pressure.
