The way I test my air pressure is I ride into a large body of water and see if the tires make the bike float upside down or if I just keep riding along on the bottom. If the bike doesn't float then I need to increase my air pressure. I will say though neutral buoyancy is about where you want it set for track though as you don't want too much air in there reducing the contact patch.
My bike came with a 180/55/17, but my cousin has a set of race take-offs from his 1985 Caprice Classic. Should I use DynaBeads or just slap some hamsteak in there and hope for the best?
Glad to see you and the bike were unharmed @F4iguy. Looks like you may have ran a bit wide on entrance and tried to tighten up your line? I know you said you were working on carrying more speed through there, could have turned in at the same place and been just a few feet off.
