    How far off the ground with the car resting on the tyres should the rear wing for a BAD be?

    I don't know that there is a height that it "should" be, as I've seen fast cars with a real tall wing, all the way down to a real short wing (ie: Steve Federlin).

    If it were me, I'd make it tall enough so I didn't wack my head while walking under it!

    With the blower cars having a hard time hitting minimum weight, most do about everything they can to cut weight, including cutting tube out of the rear wing.

    You Get More Leverage Out Of A Taller Wing. (thanks Joe Amato). Run It Tall And Make Your Wing Small, (magiera Or Haase). The Most Effect Is Drag. Cut It And You Go Faster. If You Need More Wing Due To Making Too Much Hp, Go Play With Bill Reichert. Lol.
