| tyre warmers are well worthwhile imho.
from my own personal experience i get more confidence with them on, still have a slightly more gentle first lap to get in the rythm and let the bike 'settle' down but then i'm pretty much at my (very limited) maximum. if i get even 1 extra decent lap per session then thats and extra whole session per trackday or an extra whole trackday for every 7.
its very much a confidence thing. i know people who go much quicker than me on colder tyres but for now it works for me.
tyre warmers will also extend the life of your tyres by keeping the number of heat cycles to a minimum. |
