I use the longacre temp probe and their 60lb pressure gauge. This may =
have already been covered but I=E2=80=99ll just say it.
A cheap pressure gauge that reads beyond 60 lbs can have a + or =
=E2=80=93 of 5lbs which as you know by now is huge.
I also send that gauge back to longacre every two seasons for =
calibration. With a gauge that only reads to 60 you can pressurize =
fairly accurately to 1/2PSI. I use the hoosier SM7=E2=80=99s in Colorado =
and they are sensitive to pressure and tire temp.
After several years of using them I have a pretty good feel how to get =
them in the window for a good quali lap.
Get a good pressure gauge.

Additional data point: 1997 racing dollars are worth about 1/2 of 2021 =
racing dollars, so figure $150 for a probe tire temp gauge.
