I run in the high 20's/low 30's with my "street" tires. I would talk to the hankook boys if I was you because that is exactly opposite of everything that I know about tire pressures.

Congrats on the time, that's some commendable driving and car set-up. I wanna see a time sheet in the teens though... That is honestly my eventual goal at SOW CW.
I did a 1.18.xx in my Shifter kart at Streets...lol

Thats almost verbatium what Hankook told me yesterday. My low psi's of the day were typically on the high side, but thats what chassie tuning is all about. Also going to try and up my spring rates, and add new LSd if possible.
I'll eventually get her dialed in.

Oh and Kenny did a 1.26.2xx, on starspec's

Thanks again =)
