andrewc should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
ran tyrepal system on a single seater formula car several seasons agoas intended running pressure when hot was about 4-6psi hotter than ambient.

Worked OK, but the system we used updated every couple of minutes, which is fine for road car usage but less satisfactory for track use, so if buying again would look at options with either real-time option or something with a short update frequency, and accept that the battery life in the sensors would suffer. No problems at scruitineering either.

Thankfully never had a puncture but sudden pressure loss should have triggered an alarm, you notice alarm in a normal car, but unsure whether driver would notice in a single seater (noise / vibration / generally being busy) is another matter. More likely would feel it first and could then check display for flashing light.
