Racer65 should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
Slicks are a totally different kettle of fish to road based treaded tyres.

It's the spread of temperature that I used to set my pressures rather than one reading. Measure at outside edges and the centre. Shouldn't be more than 10 degrees across all three measurements.

I'd say 100 would be right at the top range and 60 is too cold but I don't run your tyres. With DZ03G's and R888R's I've aimed for around 80 degrees with a needle pyrometer which will give you a very different read to a surface infra red. They're not as expensive as you seem to think.

If the centre is much hotter than the outsides then you're running too high a pressure if it's the other way around it could be too low or too much camber depending on whether it's the inside or outside that is too hot.
