First time to Watkins Glen with 2016 ACR

[Darth Viper]

I will be going to the Glen for two day event with Hooked on Driving, on 10/15/ and 16.
I will not be making any changes to the car settings, until I have a good grasp on the car on the track.
This is the first time with the ACR on the track, though I have been several times to the Glen in the past.
I will do the fluid changes before getting there, the car has 1100 miles and it will have 1500 at least when I get
to the Glen.
My question is: what tire pressures should I use? Cold, hot?
Your advice is greatly appreciated

Thanks Bruce, very helpful

I believe the referenced thread talks about changing the rear wing angle. If it were me I might try that if it helps the Kumhos last longer. Also keep a close eye on the tires between sessions. I'd hate to blow a tire at the Glen, that would be bad.

Tried the wing adjustment at COTA this past weekend and feel that the car had less of a push for sure without really giving up much rear stability. If I owned an ACR E I would always have it in hole position #1.

Awesome! Finally, another ACR at an HOD event. I'll see you there, man. What group are you running in?

Hey Darth, I will be attending this event also. I am crossing my fingers for great weather. I have a brand-new ACR extreme but only have 700 miles on her. I will be bringing my GTR instead. Next season I'll be ready with the viper.
What color is your viper? I'll be sure to look for you and introduce myself. Looking forward to seeing your viper out there.

I signed up as advanced but this will be my first time at the Glen. Really looking forward to this.

I believe some amazing cars are going to be there...

Let's pray for good weather. Last time I was at the Glen this spring, the track had to be closed for first 2 sessions of the day due to fog (100 ft max visibility).
