// Hot Lap · Dry

TYRES

  • Slick — Soft compound (AMS2 GT3). Front: 1.85 bar / Rear: 1.80 bar (hot target). Optimal operating window: 85–105°C for peak grip; qualifying attack lap target is a fast spike to 90–95°C within 2 laps. Blanket temp (if used): 80°C.

ELECTRONICS

  • TC1: 5 / TC2: 3 / ABS: 5 / Brake Pressure: 100% / Brake Bias: F 54% / R 46%

DRIVETRAIN

  • Fuel Map: Map 1 — max power, richest mixture, no fuel saving consideration (single hot lap)
  • Gear Ratios:
  • 1st: 3.31
  • 2nd: 2.47
  • 3rd: 1.99
  • 4th: 1.65
  • 5th: 1.38
  • 6th: 1.16
  • Final Drive: 3.72 — tuned for max speed at end of Conrod Straight without hitting limiter before The Chase braking zone

AERO

  • Front Splitter: 4 (of typical 1–5 range, aggressive) / Rear Wing: 7 (high downforce level, near max) / Overall downforce level: High — prioritizing Skyline/Chase stability over Conrod top speed / Brake Ducts: 4 (front) / 3 (rear) — moderate cooling, single lap doesn't need extended thermal margin

KEY SETUP NOTE

  • Bathurst is a rear-stability track disguised as a power track — the extra rear wing and stiffer rear spring/ARB cost you a little on Conrod, but they are what let you take Skyline flat and hit Murray's exit throttle a fraction earlier, which matters more than raw straight-line speed over the lap.

TRACK GUIDE

  • Hell Corner (T1): brake late but straight-line only, get the car rotated early so you can be full throttle by the exit kerb — traction here defines your Mountain Straight run.
  • The Cutting (T2/3): sacrifice a little mid-corner speed for a clean, stable exit — you're about to crest Skyline flat-out, any residual load or wheel slip there is dangerous.
  • Skyline (T4): commit flat if the rear felt planted through The Cutting; lift only if you sense instability — this is where the stiffer rear setup pays off.
  • The Dipper/Forrest's Elbow: trust the compliance in the dampers, let the car settle into the downhill compression, commit through Forrest's Elbow — lifting here loses more time than anywhere else on-track.
  • Murray's Corner into Conrod: get on power as early as possible even if it costs a fraction of
