Default RS Wing Adjustment Results

Has anyone adjusted their RS wing for more than the least possible drag, and if so, what were the results on track? Anyone have any traqmate data before and after an adjustment?

Law- I'm much more stable in 90+mph curves and straights now- running full attack or a bit less with the wing. DO IT!

it's a noticeable feel difference for me. no data though, sorry. I'm not allowed to participate in 'timed racing events' per my employment contract.

Thanks C.J. - I noticed the same thing at Laguna Seca back in August, but did not have a traqmate hooked up at the time. No one out here in the west seems to run any wing angle other than flat.

Would a traqmate violate your contract?

BTW, I was hoping to see the Rangers at spring training, but can't make it down to AZ till April 4th. Maybe next year. Have a good season.

thanks man! I think that having any kind of timing equipment could be a risk- especially since I'm just "driving at the old country club" lol

be honest- how fun is laguna seca? I plan on attending the ALMS race there this october barring any world series contention.

I don't know why people wouldn't run higher attack angles- seems to me like grip is your friend! especially at L.S.- is it turn 9 or 10 that I'm thinking of?
