There's formulae about this in the Level 2 Track coaching resources from BC.
I can't remember if it factors in rider weight though, possibly not.
Tyre choice & pressure, track temperature and track surface age might also play a factor.
I fully support M_V in saying:
I can’t recommend strongly enough against trying to find the limit of grip.
Everyone is there to have a good time, so safety is paramount.
I treat the minimum safe speed like a cliff edge, e.g. I wouldn't walk so close to the edge that the slightest misstep means I'd fall in the sea.
If you ever come across that formulae from the Level 2 Track coaching resources from BC I'd be really interested. Thanks for your input.
