I personally love the tire pressure and temp display as a learning tool while on track. For example, if the fronts are getting too hot (and have a high psi) abs the rears not close enough, I know I need to drive/turn more with the throttle and rear tires. And when the car starts to get greasy, I know exactly what pressure and temp are the limit for those tires, for the next time around. Never had this display in any car, and I like having it on track.

I agree to use the on-screen TPMS display while on track to monitor pressures. As soon as the tire would get over 40 psi or so, they'd get greasy and I'd have to back off a lap or 2. Most of the time that was the end of the session anyways.

So, it would appear that 28psi is the threashold??
So happy to have found this thread and thanks everyone for your contribution.
I get my car next week and will be tracking it soon.
I would definitely have been caught out by this.
I think I'll program a shortcut button for the reset.
