Default Tyre pressure for short circuit rally

Hello
Im into buying some Proxes R888R in 185/60-R14 for short circuit rally, we drive around 10 stages a day with a distance of 2-4 km pr. stage

But i am unsure which tyre pressure to go with, the car weight is around 850 kg with 2 persons in it.

What can you recommend for start tyre pressure?

I ran 29 PSI on the front and 30 PSI on the rear, this used to work fine for me. I dropped the fronts from 31 PSI due to understeer

aim for around 30 hot, you probably want to start at 24-26 front and a bit less in the rear and go from there, with such short stages you shouldn't have a huge problem with excessive pressure.
