I was about to read before thanking you, but I must get to bed and if I start reading that won't happen any time soon. Thank you in advance!

Gotta love anything that has 150+ pages of tire dynamics.... Is there any way we could sticky this for reading materials? I have a bunch of stuff around here somewhere from Mark Ortiz, Bob Bolles, Penske etc that I could add to the list

That last article definitely covers the basics really well. I can't believe how many people show up to a race and never think to adjust their tire pressures!

I can't say I learned a lot from that Subaru article, but a good read for a beginner nonetheless
