Our Intro to Optimizing Your Tire Pressure

DwD 0253: Introduction to Optimizing Your Tire Pressure

On this issue of Dominating with Dawson, we talk through the importance of optimizing the pressure in your tires. No doubt this is of great importance to the performance of the tire as well as affecting the wear characteristics of the tire. We go through what you should try to target and several methods that can be used to determine the optimum tire pressure. Each method is a balance of cost, ease, and accuracy. There is no doubt we will revisit this topic again, probably more than once.

Fast Hands vs Slow Hands

DwD 0249: Fast Hands vs Slow Hands

In this issue of Dominating with Dawson, we discuss the debate between fast hands and slow hands. The
natural tendency of each driver varies, often by how they grew up. Go karters and autocrossers usually have a tendency to have faster hands. Ben discusses with us the usefulness of both and what we think of as the
“proper” hand speed.

Also, Ben stakes a very strong claim in the debate between Eric Clapton and Eddie van Halen.
