Default For those that have driven Daytona . . .

What alignment specs are you running? The little information I've found has shown reduced camber (<-3 degrees) on the right side but specific values would be really helpful. Also, are slightly higher hot tire pressures warranted and if so, what should be the target generally speaking?

I searched and found generic information but was hoping to hear from other GT3 owners.

I use the factory alignment with normal tire pressures ( 29F 30R hot) except I add an extra 3 psi to both outside F+R tires.

Those are "normal" pressures?

I haven't driven Daytona, but have done many track days at the Fontana roval where the banked turn is taken around 150 mph. Hot pressures at 32F 34R seems optimal on MPSC 2's. 36 psi starts to slide. 2.6 degrees camber in front, factory rear alignment.
Would be concerned about handling in the infield with higher pressures on the right side.

Those are my normal track hot psi targets.

Dave - a lot of this is dependent on what tires you'll be running. I suggest you call George at Eurosport Racing in Joliet or John at BGB for guidance. They have both tons of experience with alignment settings for the GT3 and Cayman platforms.

Best,
Adam

Yep, I'm heading that way. Thought I'd start here to see what the natives had to say.
