I like to feel it out in the yard a day or two before racing (so there's no surprises), and add/subtract pressure so there's not too much rim hitting the ground.
Ok good to know. Yea the first race of the season I had the back at 35psi...and only noticed what I think was a foldover once, and it was on a very slight off camber that I took pretty hard. Then the next race I had it at 30...and it seemed I had that sensation on pretty much every corner I took hard.
