The temps and pressures were run on a 2350# GT 1 Corvette... Times were in the teen's....

But if your temps are higher in the middle of the tire... then you need more negative camber....

Many times the induced power oversteer is miss interperted for a handling issue and it is more of a driver technique issue....

28# is low and you want the tire to be at 30# so it is flat on the ground....

Also you might want to stiffen the springs or sway bar in the front to increase the wheel rate to induce less oversteer....your tire temps were higher in the back then in the front....also your pressure build up was higer in the rear indicating oversteer ... allbeit suspension or driver induced....

And yes the tires do cool down some what but not as fast as you think....
