Red face Ride height question

Had a 964 for 7 years and I'm now in the 951 loop. When setting up the 964 we followed factory RS guide lines regarding minimum ride height. There are measuring points on the 4 control arms that you use to adjust ride height. Here are my questions...
Are there any measuring points on the 944 platform?
Any concerns if the car is too low? bump steer?
What ride height did the cup cars use?
Forward, neutral or rear rake?
Any suggestion regarding ride height would be appreciated!
Hoping to keep the koni adjustable shocks in front. Going coilovers in the rear. Got some Pohlman a arms
Thanks

There are ride height specs for the 951 in Vol 6 Section 44 of the factory workshop manual.

I used this link http://www.lindseyracing.com/LR/Parts/SUSHEIGHT.html to set my ride height.

That appears to be the same as the workshop manual (for the 944 turbo specs anyway) and a lot easier to find.
