Can everyone tells me what tire pressure you use on the track?

I try to keep them around 45psi hot...
Starting pressure depends on track and weather. On rainy days, I might start at 38psi... on hot days on real high speed tracks, I will start as low as 32psi cold.

Well the goal is even pressure when hot...
Realistically, at the Glen for example I run 32 front 36-38R... but at the start of the day I start with them even and adjust between sessions.

slightly different ranges, but still 42+
We'll go more on the edge for autox, and certainly more rear bias in autox, but the Hoosier wants a lot of air, beyond what's stamped on the side of the tire (we exceed the weight ratings on the front too). We called their support guys on this once, and they said it's not ideal, but not all that unusual. They certainly didn't seem that concerned or expect that we'd be more likely to blow tires this way.
