My last few events I was dropping pressures each run; started around 35psi and worked my way down to about 25psi over the course of the day and was continuing to get faster. I did notice once I got below 28psi or so the car got a little less predictable, but my times were still getting faster. May have just been me getting more familiar with the course.
I have my first event [of the year] coming up on the 15th so I'll try to maintain 35psi and see how it goes.
