When I go to change it, the only other setting is -1. Never seen this before, is it a glitch or can I change it elsewhere? Thanks

Thanks It's not a glitch you can't change the spoiler just like in Nascar teams are not allowed to change the degree of the spoiler. I wouldn't recommend going above 45 of grille tape either unless you want to overheat.

I know of no rule in any Nascar Heat league that restricts you from changing the rear spoiler setting from 70* to -1*. It does have a major effect to the chassis, though. To wit: If you were to set it to -1*, then save the setup and insert it into another mod, like, for instance the new Camping World Truck Series,and then start the game and go to the garage u inserted it in...you would see the rear spoiler exactly the same ,showing -1*. HOWEVER,if u click on the right arrow, (which raises the spoiler degree) it would change the setting to 42* ,click it again and it goes to 43* and so on up to 70*. If u try to go back, the lowest it will go to is 47* which is the lowest setting the CWTS mod was intended to have. Therefore, IMO and i have tested it thoroughly, setting the rear spoiler in the G3-CotPlatinum Cup mod to -1*,is the equivalent of 41* ! try it and you will see how loose it is. i have a few setups that incorporate this ,but they can be hazardous to drive after making changes to air pressure or wedge while pittting.. Race on.... << Edited on Friday, February 5, 2016 at 12:18am EST. >>

Race on.... Breeze I didn't mean a nascar heat league. I was talking about Nascar which does not allow any team to change the degree of the spoilers http://espn.go.com/racing/nascar/cup/news/story?id=4836187. That's the way Blax also set the physics up for the Platinum Cup & Nationwide/Xfinity cars, you either get 70 or -1.
