Guys - question on Wing Height – What is the best position for the wing to be in for the best downward force. I have noticed that the height varies. I will be putting the my SLC on a car lift. I have an 11 foot ceiling which should give me plenty of room under it. but was wondering if I should have it higher or lower. Or is there a standard Height for the wing that Fran provides
 
aerodynamically speaking, the higher it is the cleaner the air, the better the downforce.
trade-off is the weight of the structure required to put it up high :)
 
Another consideration is whether you plan to look over the wing or under it, as far as being able to see anything in the view mirrors.
If you run the Dumbo mirror location you can't put the wing very high I'd imagine. If you run lower mirrors then you need to make sure you have it high enough to look under.
