You mean the pressure rise from
COLD TO HOT dont you?
Thats where the trial and error comes into things.. and all the factors come in to play(track temp,ambient temp, riding style etc etc)
Im sure what smeggy was saying is, he knows where his tyres work/feel best at HOT psi, and sets(ballparks) his COLD psi accordingly, from knowing how much pressure differential COLD TO HOT he usually gets..
(for my riding style and current laptimes 3-6psi depending on track temp)
Im sure a Michelin pilot power is not that bad a tyre for the track, and a good rider could lap in low 60's easily on them...Set up suspension(sags, etc), trial and error with your pressures till you find what you feel best on, warm up tyres appropriatly before ripping into hot laps, understand what your bike is saying to you around the track, dont push and crash, enjoy
