Audi R8 LMS GT3 Evo II

TYRES

• Compound: Medium (Dry)
• Front Pressure: 27.3 PSI (hot target 28.0–28.5)
• Rear Pressure: 27.0 PSI (hot target 27.5–28.0)
• Camber: F -3.6° / R -2.4°
• Toe: F -0.05° (toe-out) / R +0.10° (toe-in)
• Optimal operating temp: 85–95°C (peak grip window, avoid exceeding 100°C for race-stint consistency)
• No tyre blankets used (AC Evo).

ELECTRONICS

• TC1: 4 (aggressive traction out of Druids/Clearways, slightly reined in for race-long rear deg)
• TC2 (slip ramp): 2
• ABS: 4
• Engine Braking/Brake Magic: Medium (Setting 4/6) — stabilizes rear into Paddock Hill and Druids under trail-brake
• Brake Bias: 54.5% front (see suspension)

• Brake Torque Multiplier: 100%
• Brake Bias: 54.5%
• // REAR
• Ride Height: 60 mm
• Wheel Rate RL / RR: 128000 N/m / 128000 N/m
• ARB: 3800 N/m
• Diff Preload: 55 Nm
• Diff Coast: 0.45
• Diff Power: 0.60

DAMPERS

AERO

• Front Splitter: 4 (of 6 clicks) — balances high-speed Westfield stability without killing Paddock Hill turn-in
• Rear Wing: 6 (of 8 clicks) — planted rear through Surtees/Westfield, still allows reasonable Clearways exit speed
• Downforce Level: Medium-High
• Brake Ducts: Front 3 / Rear 2 (manage temps over race stint, avoid overheating under heavy Paddock/Druids braking)

KEY SETUP NOTE

• The R8's stable MR platform lets you run slightly stiffer rear ARB and higher power diff lock than typical for strong Druids/Clearways traction, but you must protect rear tyre temps with slightly conservative rear camber — aggressive driving at Brands will overheat the rear-outside tyre by mid-stint if rear grip isn't balanced with front.

TRACK GUIDE

• Paddock Hill Bend: Brake hard but progressively — the downhill compression loads the front massively; trail-brake deep to rotate, then unwind for the late apex.
• Druids: This is the lap's traction keystone — sacrifice outright entry speed for a straighter exit line; power down early with TC4 managing wheelspin onto Graham Hill.
• Surtees/Westfield: Commit near-flat; these fast corners punish any rear instability — smooth steering inputs and resist mid-corner throttle lifts.
• Dingle Dell/Sheene chicane: Use kerbs but stay smooth — this car's ride height setup keeps it stable, but aggressive kerb strikes can upset rear platform before Stirlings.
• Clark Curve/Clearways: The lap is won here — carry max minimum speed on exit for the long run to Paddock Hill; sacrifice a fraction of mid-corner speed for a cleaner, earlier throttle application.
