Driving on the Race Circuit manual
Hadn't seen anyone post pages from this 12 page manual included with the car. Here are the two most interesting pages covering aero and suspension adjustments. Sorry for quality.
Yup. This is the whole thing!

That's in the regular Owner's Manual, which says the alignment specs are good for both street and track.
I'm surprised this brochure doesn't cover the sway bar settings (manual doesn't either) and I wonder why the high downforce setting is warned against for public roads.

Im already signed up for a track weekend about a month after I take delivery (I will probably have the break-in done in a couple weeks).
How does this plan sound:
My plan is to leave the aero in stock form for day 1, and adjust the wing and pull the air ducts for day 2. It is a track that I am very familiar with but have yet to master all the nuances (I haven't mastered any of the 7 tracks that I have been driving for the past 4 years which is what makes track driving so much fun and addicting).
I won't even think of adjusting the alignment for the first track outing, I am going to trust that Porsche knows what they are doing. Maybe after a half dozen track days and notice my tire wear, then go for the proper track alignment (plus I would like to hear from others what their track alignment feels like and get there #'s to use as a starting baseline).
I am also hoping the tires hold up well and have plenty of grip on the track. On my current car, which is my DD I swap on track rubber and pads for each event, but I secretly hope that I won't need the feel to get a track wheel/tire setup for the GT4 (my dream is to simply drive the Gt4 straight from my garage to the track without any changes).

Sounds reasonable. Always nice to have a baseline from which to adjust if necessary and note the improvements (or not).
