Had the AA2 on a trackday this week here up north, fairly cold conditions with air temperature 4 degrees C and track surface the same, windy and a little rain, including some snowflakes.. I used brand new Kumho V700, soft front and medium rear. Cold pressure at 12 psi. Camber and toe as the factory recommends for the AA2, the adjustable Ohlins at factory settings, and height 120/115 mm.
I tried getting temperature in the tires, and they got better after 6-7 km pushing(drifting and understeering in a good mix), but never properly warm.
Anyone got tricks to increase tire temperatures when conditions are as described? I guess it is the low weight that is the "problem"..
