AERO SETTINGS

RE AR W I NG ANGLE
The Rear Wing Angle setting changes the angle of attack of the rear wing. Increasing the angle will increase the amount of
downforce produced and move the aero balance rearward but will increase the amount of drag the wing produces. Reducing
the angle will reduce overall downforce and shift aero balance forward, but will reduce drag and allow for a higher top speed.
This angle is expressed as a reference measurement, not an absolute angle relative to the ground.

AERO CALCULATOR

The Aero Calculator is a tool used to display the car's approximate aerodynamic values in a given configuration. Changes to
the car's aerodynamic settings will be reflected in the Aero Calculator, giving an idea of how the car will behave aerodynamically
while on the race track. This calculator can also be used to determine what changes need to be made to the car to alleviate
aerodynamically-induced handling issues.
FRON T /RE AR RH AT SPEE D
The Ride Height (RH) at Speed is used to give the Aero Calculator heights to reference for aerodynamic calculations. When using
the aero calculator, determine the car's Front and Rear Ride height via telemetry at any point on track and input that value into the
"Front RH at Speed" setting.
DOW NFO RCE DE LTA
Displayed in percent of Front downforce, this value shows how much of the car's total downforce is over the front axle. A higher
percentage value indicates more front downforce, increasing oversteer in mid- to high-speed corners and a lower percentage
value indicates more rear downforce, increasing understeer in mid- to high-speed corners.
