Porsche 992 GT3 R

TYRES

• Slick (Medium compound), Front: 2.05 bar, Rear: 2.00 bar, Blanket temp: 80°C. Optimal operating window for max grip: 85–105°C (slick dry compound).

ELECTRONICS

• TC1: 5, TC2: 2, ABS: 5, Engine Braking: Medium (3/5), Brake Pressure: 97%, Brake Bias: F 54% / R 46%

DRIVETRAIN

• Fuel Map: Map 3 — balanced power delivery with moderate fuel saving, used for stint consistency; switch to Map 5 (rich/full power) for qualifying-style overtakes or late-race push laps
• Gear Ratios:
• 1st: 2.92
• 2nd: 2.24
• 3rd: 1.81
• 4th: 1.52
• 5th: 1.31
• 6th: 1.14
• Final Drive: 3.44 (long gearing for Monza's straights, reduces drag-limited top speed loss)

SUSPENSION

• // FRONT
• Ride Height: 55 mm
• Wheel Rate FL / FR: 145000 N/m / 145000 N/m

• // REAR
• Ride Height: 62 mm
• Wheel Rate RL / RR: 160000 N/m / 160000 N/m
• ARB: 26 N/mm

• Diff Coast: 0.7
• Diff Power: 0.3

DAMPERS

AERO

• Front Splitter: 2 (low), Rear Wing: 4 (of 10 — low-drag setting for Monza straights), Downforce Level: Low, Brake Ducts: F 3 / R 2 (minimize drag, tyres run hot enough from braking load)

KEY SETUP NOTE

• Monza punishes drag mercilessly on the twin long straights — run the lowest rear wing you can control through Parabolica and Ascari without snap oversteer on exit; the 992 GT3 R's rear-engine weight bias means you can run less rear wing than most GT3s and still find traction, but ride height and diff coast lock must compensate to prevent entry instability under trail-braking into T1 and T4.

TRACK GUIDE

• T1/2 (Rettifilo): Brake as late as possible from 330+ km/h — trail brake deep into entry, use high coast lock diff to rotate the car; attack the chicane kerbs flat but don't unsettle rear ride height on exit.
• T3 (Curva Grande): Taken essentially flat in high-downforce cars, but with this low-drag setup you may need a small lift — commit early, let the rear squat and trust the stable ARB setup.
• T4/5 (Roggia): Second heavy brake zone — same late-braking approach as T1, but exit traction is critical since it feeds a long run to Lesmo; don't get greedy on power until the car is straight.
• Lesmo 1/2: Lesmo 1 rewards front-end bite on entry (this setup's softer front ARB helps rotation); Lesmo 2 is where understeer creeps in — be patient on throttle, exit speed here is worth more than entry speed.
• Ascari Chicane: Flat, stable ride over the kerbs is essential — this is where lap time is won or lost; carry momentum through all three direction changes without overdriving the entry.
• Parabolica: The most important corner on the lap — late apex, progressive throttle application, maximum exit speed onto the pit straight defines your lap time more than any other sector.
