Angle of Attack Recommendations (997.2 GT3)
The angle of attack on my wing is currently -7.5 degrees. I have a 997.2 GT3 and I'm looking for recommendations for Road Course settings. I am not going to change this from track to track, so I'm looking for a setting that is versatile. I primarily drive at Watkins Glen and NJMP.
Thanks for any help.

I would go max wing for Watkins Glen.
NJMP, no idea, haven't been there.

I tested my 996 GT3 with wing at stock position, and wing at 8 degrees at Watkins Glen. I lost 3 mph prior to the bus stop with the max wing, but the car felt planted through T2-T3-T4 and it felt faster around the track.

In the book "speed secrets, professional race driving techniques" it says "it's very rare that taking off wing results in faster lap tomes". I run 10 deg on my 997.2 NB and I can't see a darn thing in the mirror. It feels planted though.

time to step into the garage I think!
I still have a hankering to get someone to design an adapter that would allow the RS CF wing to be mounted on the back of a NB ... I know ... I know ... I should have got an RS
