Track Performance and Pressures
The entire GP Racer D212 line is designed to work at specific temperatures and pressures. NTEC technology allows you to "deflate" the rear tire before hitting the track: this way the tire deforms in a controlled manner, widening the contact patch and offering you grip that will make you roll off the throttle later and later.
Paddock usage tips:
-
- Tire Warmers: Set them to ~80°C for at least 45-60 minutes. Use tire warmers between sessions as well to avoid harmful heat cycles.
- Hot pressures (post-tire warmer): Front 2.3 / 2.4 bar. Rear 1.3 / 1.5 bar (utilizing the NTEC system).
- Note: always check the Dunlop specifications based on asphalt temperatures. Ensure the chosen size is compatible with your motorcycle's rim.
