Default Tire pressure

Hey, just wondering what tire pressure folks regularly run? That came to mind as I pumped the pressure up in preparation for an autocross I'm running tomorrow.

I increased it to 42f, 40r, but regularly like to keep it at 36f/34r.

What do you STR guys run?

Understeer is when you hit the wall with the front of the car
Oversteer is when you hit the wall with the rear of the car
Horsepower is how fast you hit the wall, and
Torque is how far you take the wall with you

I always ran more psi in the rear instead of the front to reduce oversteer, typically 36 front and 40 rear for track days.
