Porsche 992 GT3 R

TYRES

• Slick (soft qualifying compound), Front: 1.78 bar, Rear: 1.72 bar, Tyre blanket temp: 80°C. Optimal operating window for peak grip: 85–95°C (front), 80–90°C (rear) — single-lap attack means slightly lower cold pressures are acceptable since heat builds fast and only needs to survive one lap.

ELECTRONICS

• TC1: 3 (minimal intervention for max corner exit rotation)
• TC2: 1
• ABS: 4
• Brake Pressure: 100%
• Brake Bias: F: 58% / R: 42%

DRIVETRAIN

• Fuel Map: Map 1 — max power, richest mixture, no fuel saving consideration (qualifying load only)
• Gear Ratios:
• 1st: 3.23
• 2nd: 2.71
• 3rd: 2.28
• 4th: 1.96
• 5th: 1.72
• 6th: 1.52
• Final Drive: 3.44

• Brake Torque Multiplier: 100%
• Brake Bias: 58%
• // REAR

DAMPERS

AERO

• Front Splitter: 5 (max-attack low level, aggressive rotation bias)
• Rear Wing: 7 (high rear wing per car tendency — stabilizes Ferradura/Junção traction and Mergulho compression)
• Downforce Level: High
• Brake Ducts: F: 4 / R: 3 (single lap — minimal cooling need, prioritize aero tightness)

KEY SETUP NOTE

• With high coast lock and a stiffer rear ARB, the 992 GT3 R will rotate aggressively off Senna S and Mergulho — but the critical risk is Ferradura and Junção, where low-speed traction demands the rear ride height stay high enough (60mm) to avoid snap oversteer under full power delivery on exit; sacrifice a fraction of top-end aero efficiency for this stability since both corners feed into long acceleration zones.

TRACK GUIDE

• Senna S (T1/2): Brake as late as physically possible in a straight line before turn-in; trail-brake into T1 to rotate the nose, then unwind quickly — carrying entry speed here sets up the entire lap.
• Ferradura (T4): This uphill hairpin is the #1 traction zone — be fully unwound on the wheel before applying throttle; any snap here costs massive time on the following straight.
• Mergulho (T11): Heavy braking into a compression — brake slightly earlier than instinct dictates and let the car settle; braking too late here risks locking the fronts as the dip loads the suspension.
• Junção (T12): The most important exit of the lap — sacrifice a fraction of entry speed for a clean, early throttle application since
