I've heard of racers running them lower and higher than that. The switch I use also allows for an adjustable setting for where you would want the 2 step to deactivate. Allows for some more fine tuning in your reaction time. I'd say set it up where you feel comfortable the car is going to hold as well as where you can naturally hold that pressure without having to worry about if your foot is down hard enough.
Hey Doug, Thank you for the helpful info.
Where would a good spot be to set the reset point?
