5 Before diving into chassis adjustments, though, it is best to become familiar with the car and track. To that end, we have provided baseline setups for each track commonly raced by these cars. To access the baseline setups, simply open the Garage, click iRacing Setups, and select the appropriate setup for your track of choice. If you are driving a track for which a dedicated baseline setup is not included, you may select a setup for a similar track to use as your baseline. Af ter you have selected an appropriate setup, get on track and focus on making smooth and consistent laps, identif ying the proper racing line and experiencing tire wear and handling trends over a number of laps. Once you are confident that you are nearing your driving potential with the included baseline setups, read on to begin tuning the car to your handling STARTEDB efore starting the car, it is recommended to map controls for Brake Bias, Traction Control and ABS adjustments.
6 While this is not mandatory to drive the car, this will allow you to make quick changes to the driver aid systems to suit your driving style while out on the track. Once you load into the car, getting started is as easy as selecting the upshift button to put it into gear, and hitting the accelerator pedal. This car uses a sequential transmission and does not require a clutch input to shift in either direction. However, the car s downshift protection will not allow you to downshift if you are traveling too fast for the gear selected and would incur engine damage. If that is the case, the gear change command will simply be ignored. Upshifting is recommended at the illumination of the last two yellow shift lights on the dashboard. This is at approximately 9000 911 GT3 R | INTRODUCTION6 PORSCHE 911 GT3 R | USER MANUALLOADING AN iRacing SETUPWhen you first load into a session, the iRacing Baseline setup will be automatically loaded onto the car.
7 If you would like to try any of the other iRacing pre-built options, you may select it by going to Garage > iRacing Setups > and then selecting another option that fits your needs. Because this car uses slightly different chassis and body configurations on different types of tracks, it will be necessary to load a setup from the same track type to pass tech inspection. For example, a setup for Talladega will pass at Daytona, but likely will not pass at you would like to customize the setup, simply make the changes in the garage that you would like to update and click apply. If you would like to save your setup for future use click Save As on the right to name and save the changes. To access all of your personally saved setups, click My Setups on the right side of the garage. If you would like to share a setup with another driver or everyone in a session, you can select Share on the right side of the garage to do so.
8 If a driver is trying to share a setup with you, you will find it under Shared Setups on the right side of the garage as 911 GT3 R | INTRODUCTION7 PORSCHE 911 GT3 R | USER MANUALDash PagesThe digital dash display in this car features three selectable pages (Race 1, Race 2 and Qual) as well as numerous light clusters to convey critical information to the driver. Race 1 and Race 2 are largely identical aside from the upper lef t cluster; Race 1 uses this cluster to display critical engine parameters (oil temperature, oil pressure, water temperature and water pressure) while Race 2 uses this space to display relevant fuel calculations (fuel used this stint, fuel consumption per lap, fuel pressure and current fuel level). Qual forgoes most of these detailed parameters and instead displays only lap time, predicted lap time and total fuel 1 ROW 1 LEFT RACE 1 Currently selected dash pageDRY Currently fitted tireHEADLIGHT ICON Current headlight setting (non-adjustable)ROW 1 CENTERNUMBER Currently vehicle speed (km/h or mph)ROW 1 RIGHTLAP Current session lapAC-0 Currently selected A/C map (non-adjustable)ROW 2 LEFTOIL TEMP Engine oil temperature ( C or F)OIL PRESS Engine oil pressure (bar or psi)WATER TEMP Engine water temperature ( C or F)
