Porsche GT3 992 setup

[late wagon]

I tried to make a setup for the porsche gt3 992 and it seems to be good compared to the fixed one. I did it for the spa but it's good in Portimao and Spielberg. The only problem is that it seems to be a little slow on the straight. Does anyone have any suggestions or another setup?

[wind patrol]

Funny how i thought, by looking at your driving (which is obviously godly) that you would want an oversteery car, but it doesn’t look to be oversteery by setup. Granted I haven’t tried that setup..

Just curious, @late wagon

[late wagon]

Well, I tried to find a good balance between understeer and oversteer and it works. I don't have problems with oversteer because I also use a lot of Tc . But the car overall is well balanced, at least in my hands. The biggest difficulty will probably be in the slow corners like hairpins etc...

[wind patrol]

Aah yeah I forgot you used controller.

But if you are running a high TC level, why can’t you add less rear bar, maybe to aid turn-in? With your reflexes and feel, I’d say you can handle a snappy car..

But who am i to give you advice 😅 you can lap me.

[wind patrol]

I mean, add more bar.. stiffer.

[late wagon]

Yeah, but usually when i drive a snappy car i cant be consistent or sometimes i Overreact and end into the gravel. But maybe i can try it

[wind patrol]

I know it’s a balance act. But ultimately a faster car is oversteery, I guess.

But it’s not like you ain’t fast already 😅😅🚗👌

[late wagon]

i know, but im not a dtm esports driver 😅

[rocky sage]

@wind patrol pls stop triggering bot 👀

[wind patrol]

Im just trying to reply here 😅

[rocky sage]

try not including bad word

[coral relic]

Whats your personal best at Spa with this setup?

[late wagon]

I don't use that One anymore, i did 16.9 with a new One that i have.

[coral relic]

Can you please share the car setup?

[late wagon]

Its not drivable at the moment, i need to work on it

[coral relic]

Okey, share it when you are done with it☺️

[late wagon]

have fun

I don't know how to drive that, but its just skill issue, i don't think its bad but it doesnt fit for every driving style, a bit of oversteer on the entry and exit, you can lower the rear spring but it Will understeer a bit

If you have any suggestions to make the setup better, put it here, it helps a lot

[lost trellis]

hi @late wagon
is that viable for the "non dtm" version?

thanks for sharing btw 😀

[late wagon]

That setup is for the GT3 class

Oh, yeah i forgot that is for dtm23, but i Will put here some pictures

[lost trellis]

thanks mate

[late wagon]

I use 60% TC with 0.34/33

[lost trellis]

i have to understand better how tc works here 🙃

[brittle knoll]

I have a question, which tracks is this setup for?

[earnest ember]

I did it for the spa but it's good in Portimao and Spielberg.

[brittle knoll]

ok

thanks

Do you want more speed on a straight line? Reduce the wing to 6 and increase the anti-rollbar... I think you can only know by testing.

[late wagon]

That's a setup for controller, don't trust it. I increased the anti roll bar for high speed corners and the wing is for more speed on the straight

Português de onde?

[late wagon]

português

[lethal ginkgo]

What controller, like a PlayStation?

[late wagon]

xbox

[lethal ginkgo]

Therefore, it is a waste of time.

[late wagon]

why

[lethal ginkgo]

It's the same thing as killing soldiers with a slingshot!

[late wagon]

it is very good, i dont see any problem

[lethal ginkgo]

This doesn't even work for Fortnite, but if it works for you, that's great. With the price of this controller, you could buy a steering wheel even the weakest one is better than this.

[late wagon]

not really, everything welll configurated makes magic

[lethal ginkgo]

I believe, after seeing someone playing Fortnite with their fingers on the screen... my eyes were crossed. But if you like simulation, why don't you buy a steering wheel?

[late wagon]

because i already have,if you will buy a cheap wheel its better a controller. gives more simulation then a barbie wheel,and you can understand very well what car do and how to go fast with it

[lethal ginkgo]

Where do you live? City?

[late wagon]

in the north

[lethal ginkgo]

Far from me, I'm from Almada. Is Tomás Ribeiro your name on the track? You live in the north but aren't you ashamed of where you live?

[late wagon]

You mean in game?

[lethal ginkgo]

Sim

[late wagon]

Ashamed? what do you mean?

[lethal ginkgo]

Se tens vergonha por revelar o lugar onde vives, porque o norte é apenas a zona do país. Mas, pronto, isso é confidencial e cada um sabe de si.

[late wagon]

Não tenho vergonha, só não me interessa muito dizer onde eu vivo

[lethal ginkgo]

I thought maybe if you live nearby, we could always share more information and test my cockpit. I just thought that anyone interested in car setups deserved better than an XBOX controller.

[late wagon]

I already have a wheel, don't worry

But thanks for offer

[lethal ginkgo]

🤔

[random frost]

Hardcore modification of the car, I don't know how long this may have taken but the change and balance is amazing, thanks for sharing.
For this car at the nordschleife do you have any recommendations or setup.
I have something but it feels like it's not right

[late wagon]

This a setup for controller, just don't trust on it, increase rear spring, decrease front anti roll bar and increase rear anti-Roll bar

[random frost]

That's why it's perfect for me. That's more or less what I did, it's still complicated to fine-tune but it improves the original setup.

[random frost]

Can you explain to me what you get by raising or lowering the rear and front bar? I understand the mechanical operation and the explanation in the game. But in driving, what is perceived?

Well I got more control and less oversteer at the rear and less understeer at the front. Quick and effective tips

🏆

[wind patrol]

By stiffening the front bar, you get less grip, but more control, because, that end can’t move as freely in the corners, with roll occurring. Reduces contact to the road. And vice versa, if you loosen it, it will be more grippy. So… rule of thumb is, loose front and stiffer rear bar, will make the car pointy. But many factors play into this.. toe-angle, spring rate, even weight distribution of the car.. but most GT3 cars are rear weight biased. Some more than others.

[random frost]

This is very helpful. It would be a lot of trouble to ask another question about convergence and slow/fast bumps/bounces. I understand that it can be complicated to explain but the above was easy to understand. Thank you very much.

[wind patrol]

It is a complicated matter! Witch is why those who really understand it well, can make the car even faster 😁

[random frost]

I guess you don't need it, but if you want, I'll share my Nords setup with you.

[late wagon]

All good

[gusty hatch]

Thanks for sharing. Drove 2-3 20min races in Portimao and thats the first conclusions. Car too oversteery to me, but its coming OK after a few laps. Turn 4 requires clear control. Turn 7 my weak point, i often loose rears and on this setup even more. The biggest problems i have in last corner. The more laps i do the worse it turns becoming more understeery. Maybe I'm overheating the LF, but redusing it 170-171 psi before start. To be fair i must say the quickest time i set with this setup, but have problems in race so far. Thanks in any case 👍

To be clear i used stock setups before, then used @thin flax he shared earlier. And I've never face such last-corner-problems before i guess. I don't get what to do to solve it

[thin flax]

What was wrong with my Portimao setup? 😛 I used it for a 1h race at some point, and didn't really have problems in the final corner

[gusty hatch]

Nothing wrong )

[gusty hatch]

Your setup is great. I just trying the different

[thin flax]

I think the one Tomas shared is for Spa though, isn't it? Usually a very different approach compared to Portimao

[gusty hatch]

Need more time to compare the setups gentlemen

[thin flax]

Also, I can see Tomas' setup has positive front toe 🤯 Don't think I've ever seen that. Would explain understeer in final corner, I guess

[gusty hatch]

Gonna change it and try in the future

[thin flax]

He's a better driver than me, and he knows what he's doing, but it might be some very Spa-specific thing. You don't really need front agility that much on Spa as on Portimao

[gusty hatch]

@thin flax is your setup for gamepad too?

[thin flax]

I use a wheel. And I've never driven a gamepad, so I have no idea how it translates 😛 But the setup does have suitable amount of rotation/stability for Portimao in any case, I'd guess, considering it's made specifically for that track

But could be that gamepad requires something completely different

Tomas is the expert on that

[gusty hatch]

Do you remember your qf time and pace in 1h Portimao race?

[thin flax]

41.5 in Q I think. Might also have done some 41s in the race, but also maybe not. It had a mandatory pit stop, so I had fresh rears in the 2nd half

[gusty hatch]

Holly sh*t )) i mean time is fantastic!

You change rears too?

I thought only fronts. The rears stands the whole race, no?

[thin flax]

It doesn't really matter for 1h, GT3 tyres hardly gets worn anyway. It's just old habit to change rears. I normally wear them more than fronts. But I haven't really played the game much in the last year, so I've never tested changing fronts. Dunno how the car balance is. But probably fine, considering there's so little degradation anyway

[gusty hatch]

LF degradation was about 60-65% in half an hour, so I've freshed only fronts. But my race pace slower 1 - 1.5 sec than yours for sure

[thin flax]

Oh wtf, I didn't get that much in a full hour 😄 But gamepad things I guess

[gusty hatch]

And stock setups metters too i guess. Haven't enough time and motivation to do 1h Porti race in single player to check all this out ))

[thin flax]

Inputs matter way more than setup in this case. My Portimao setup is just a little bit more loose than the default, not much. Need a rather safe setup on that track

[gusty hatch]

Sorry, inputs? You mean - gamepad or wheel matter way more? My English is poor...

[thin flax]

Inputs as in how you drive. How much you turn the wheel etc. I think gamepad drivers generally have more intense steering input, so I guess that contributes to more front tyre wear. I turn the car more with my pedal inputs than how much I turn the wheel, so to speak

60% tyre wear in half an hour sounds crazy to me 😄

[gusty hatch]

Ok, i get it )

[gusty hatch]

Gonna work with myself driving form and pace. Or not ))

Whats the best for nords ond dtm 23

but that dont show me the set up

[light lava]

You asked for "best" without specifying best what

I posted the best times

[lyric moat]

I meant best setup

this is set up chat

[thin flax]

There's no such thing as 'best setup'. But here is a setup, which is pretty decent https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lV9LELUS9NI
