Good video

[@TommyTeg]

Really into my tyre physics in a real nerdy way and very much enjoyed this.
After numerously replaying the Ben Collins audio book it’s helpful to hear another professional’s delivery of the information on tyres.

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@JosephKotrieMonson]

These are great videos. Thanks David.

[@david_pittard]

Glad you like them!

Great explanatory tire😊

Glad it was helpful!

We need more! How do you optimize pressure per corner, how do you setup for wet, how does track temp effects your setup, how can you tell your pressure is off?

[@david_pittard]

oh wow all very big topics!
I don't think you can optimize them per corner, rather per session. Your manufacturer should be able to reccomend target pressures
Generally go higher with the pressures for wet to allow the tread block to cut through the water,
track temps will change the set up in different ways for different cars,
You can tell if the pressures are off by the wear pattern and if the cars optimum grip changes

Really great video for young and just starting out on their motorsport careers. All three parts have been great. It really shows the difference between a fast driver and a racing driver. Great job mate.👍

[@david_pittard]

Much appriciated! 😀

[@AdamB.25]

Great video and series! Good luck in the first round of NLS this weekend also

[@david_pittard]

Appreciate it!
