I'm not familiar with the setups on road coarses but I run 45psi in the rear and 40psi in front. I would be scared running in the 20's because I would imagine you are driving on the letters in the turns

I thought 20's sounded a little low, too. But, consider that he's on dedicated track tires (uber-stiff sidewalls so higher-than normal pressures are not required), it was raining (less G-force) and it was cold (less grip). Not gonna hurt the tires in those conditions no matter what you do. So, if it worked for him... why not?

Nice .
One thing I've learned while driving a track in the rain is to NOT to drive the same line as if it were dry . WHY ? B/C the the line you drive in the dry is worn smooth and there will usually be standing water in the dry line after/during the rain . Drive slightly to the left or right ( whatever the case may be ) , but not to where you are in the marbles ( DUH) . You will get much better traction during a wet session on the "rougher" tarmac as opposed to the smooth worn down tarmac .
