i think(remeber think not to positive) lol that too high of pressure would be a narrow mark towards with the center of the tire getting the contact

too low of pressure would be a wider contact patch but at the edge of the tire mark it would be more dark on each side meaning that the middle of the tire is cuping and not getting much traction

my .02 cents atleast

Take it out on a road and do a burn out, if it is dark in the middle drop air , if it is dark on the outside add air.

Unless you change the laws of physics and make the rubber neon green, at the track, you won't be able to distinguish ANY marks as being yours.
