Coolest track tire ever from Michelin - Track Connect

Michelin Track Connect PSC2 system. I just discovered this while shopping for some new track tires at Tirerack.







It's like having a tire engineer for your car with internal tire pressure and temperature sensors mounted inside the tire relaying info back to a receiver box in the car which then talks to your smartphone and tells you if the car is oversteering or understeering and it recommends how to adjust pressures




"Available exclusively with Pilot Sport Cup 2 Track Connect tires for select vehicles.

Michelin's Track Connect system offers personalized advice before, during and after your track sessions to continually improve vehicle performance and deliver lower lap times.

Air pressure recommendations for your vehicle and track conditions, plus adjustment advice based on real-time vehicle handling mean Track Connect is like having a personal Michelin tire engineer with you every time you go to the track.

PDF's for the app are linked at the bottom of this page:

I downloaded the app on my iPhone, registered and sent a request via the app for the AMG GT-S as it is not supported yet. If you do the same, they may add our cars.

Really cool tech but I am not sure why this couldn’t be integrated into a more advanced TPMS sensor.
Better yet, make it active and adjust the tire pressure automatically. At least to reduce TP.

On my new G wagon in addition to tire pressure I get the tire temperature read out. Does anyone have that on the new AMG GT models? Certainly would get set up a lot quicker.
