Default Spoiler deployment

Does anyone know the speed at which the 997 spoiler deploys?

Cannot find the info. in the owners's manual (says something about varying conditions including speed) or after a Rennlist search.

Seem to recall it was 60 mph on my 996.

The first generation manual does not have the info.

The second generation manual that includes the Cab has the info on p.56 and is available on Renntech as a pdf.
With Engine compartment temp under 122°F
Extends at 75 mph
Retracts at 37 mph

With engine compartment temp over 140°F
Extends at 50mph
Retracts at 19mph

Happy Motoring!
