Hello! ,
Just curious if anyone has any experience with the hoosier d20 treaded tires. Just wanted to see what everyone thought on air pressure. Track usually starts out rough and heavy. I start with 9.5-10 down the right. And 6-6.5 lefts....Once track slicks off go to about 6 down the rights and 4.5-5 down the left. Kart still seems to wanna skate. Just wondering if I need to drop even more once the track slicks off.
 
You're pressures are within range, but your split is excessive. (especially if you're on limited (ie lower) HP.)
2 pounds of split from left to right sides is plenty. 8-10 on a bigger track. 6-8 on a small track.
If the track is rough, then go down on pressure -- think Harlem Globetrotters gig with the over-inflated vs flat basketball. Same is true with tire pressures.
