Okay, but then why don't you adjust the wing to give you some extra infield grip. If you're going to bounce off the limiter for a second or two, at minimum, (we weren't close enough to hear the car on the back stretch), per lap, it would make sense to come in and adjust your aero to gain you some grip in other areas, wouldn't it?

more downforce in the infield would only be good for 1 corner.. so not worth it.. no matter what...

Would also help in the bus stop...

but they were hitting the limiter in only 1 spot on the track.. everywhere else.. was fine..


so not worth it...

Good info. Thanks Leh.
Is it the same with your car, in terms of the amount of wing that you guys run there?

yea... Daytona is a low downforce track obviously....

But the main thing is in a race situation... Its way easier to pass on the straight.. So you kinda have to sacrifice some high speed grip...

Now in Barber next weekend.. We will run full wing almost to the stalling point....
