Set PBs & Grab P1 with the Porsche 992 GT3 R
The Porsche GT3 Setup in question will not only provide you superb aggressive preset that will help you achieve faster lap times🏆 and more rotation but also a greater amount of stability.
Here at Hungaroring, significantly increased stability along with balance between the front and rear end leads to lower tyre overheating and degradation which in turn is crucial for keeping a competitive pace in the ultra-competitive ACC online races like AOR and LFM.
Actually, when developing our setups, we do take some factors into account when deciding on tyre pressures, brake ducts, camber and toe for example.
After all of this, you can imagine that this Porsche setup will be as good as it gets as it is going to provide you with stability and control, making you confident in pushing the car to its limit.

Porsche 992 GT3 R Setups ACC Version
This setup of Porsche is fully compliant with 1.10 Version of ACC and will be implemented when there is next major change in Physics or BoP so every other 6 months approximately.
You will get some email notifications in case some of the fresh new setups are released, so you do not have to worry about purchasing new ones with every new patch for ACC.
Useful Information About The Setups
The qualy setups usually consist of 4 laps of fuel which includes the out lap, so you will only have 3 flying laps to set your best time.
Keep in mind that the assumptions regarding tire pressures and ride heights are based on that fuel amount for maximizing grip level and aero downforce.
In a race in which the car has a full tank of fuel, the car very usually suffers from the problem of excessive oversteer so rear ride heights are often lowered by around 1-2mm
Additionally, brake ducts tend to be “more open” in an effort to cool the brakes and subsequently the tires, mainly the rears, which is very helpful in hot temperatures and high wear tracks.
Proper Tyre Settings After Major ACC 1.9 Update
After the introduction of the 1.9 tyre update, the peak of the tyre grip performance should be achieved around the 2nd or 3rd push lap, so if the tyres at lap 1 pressure seems a bit low, in this case particularly in sector 1 & 2 at Hungaroring, don’t panic.
What’s also worth mentioning is that after the 1.9 ACC tyre Update there now seems to be a wider operating window at around 26.0 to 27.0 PSI, but for the last two push laps of qualy try to keep the figure in the higher range 26.6 to 27.0.
However, for whatever strange reasons, it seems to be preferable to maintain a setting such as 27.1 or 27.2 rather than one of the lower figures. Anything below 26.0 seems to be very wet and slippery which seems to be not advisable especially in the last few laps of any race or the first push of a Qualy stint.
The same goes for the race stints, make sure the pressures are in the correct range for most of the stint, while it is advisable to keep them slightly low, they should not drop below 26.6 – 26.9.
However, considering the pressure loss and tyre deg across 45+ minutes race stints it is safe to say that by the end of the race, constant low setting pressure on the ‘26’ will be typical.
First, it is advisable to increase the starting pressure slightly because the optimal pressure will be achieved as the stints progress and there will be reduced chances of tyre graining affecting grip levels. The life of the tyres will be improved and hence maintain the lap times very close to the PBs. When increasing brake ducts, the straight will be cooled by the brakes and subsequently the tires which will affect the pressures. In fact, however, for every step on the brake ducts (let’s say 3 to 4), you ought to increase or decrease the pressures by approximately 0.2 PSI depending on the trace
Adjusting Tyre Pressures And Brake Ducts Looking At Air & Track Temperatures
When racing in ACC, and in Hungaroring in particular, one should always seek to balance the pressures with air and track temperature of the current server session. Most setups have been set with air temp at 22° and track temp between 26° and 27°. But conditions always change, so you need to be ready to ready to adapt to them.
The thumb rule for pressure is if there is a difference of +1° or –1° in air temperature, then the difference in pressure will be +0.1 and –0.1 respectively.
Now let’s say, you participate in a race which you log online. The air temp was at about 27° and the track was around 33° while this race takes place, in this scenario you need to decrease the pressure in every tyre by approximately 0.4 PSI and possibly 1 full open brake ducts more ‘open’ if you notice that the brakes are getting hot.
Anyway if the temperature of air goes lower, let’s say 18° and the track 20° for instance during a night race or during Dawn of the 24hr, then 0.4 PSi on each tire will be needed as a correction in our metric.
Thus in this case, it means going up 0.4 PSI on each tyre and possibly having tighter ducts for one more brake duct which means that if prior to the race, the tire temperature was 3, it should be 2 now.
How About Fuel Load? How Much Should I Run With The Porsche GT3 R?
As selecting optimum rally setups is the main feature in qualifying rounds, our combos usually envisage four laps of fuel which include the out lap as mentioned above.
If all you are going to do is to hotlap, driving in hotlap mode, then don’t worry for the fuel fixed at 2 litres, duh 😅.
Actually, during the qualy run if the fuel pressure alarm 🚨 appears in sector 3 of the last flying lap don’t care, you will still finish the lap and click ‘Return to Garage’ immediately afterwards.
In rare instances where you run out of fuel with only several corners left, just put 1 extra litre.
How Many Setup Files Are Included For the Porsche GT3 R at Hungaroring?
Our Hungaroring Porsche GT3 setups pack includes:
- 3 Qualy Sry Setups (SAFE, ESPO, META)
- 3 Race Dry Setups (SAFE, ESPO, META)
- 1 Wet Setup
What’s The Difference Between The META, ESPO, & SAFE Setups And Which Should I Use?
The “META” setups👽 are the ones with the highest amount of front grip, rear rotation, aggressive dampers, higher rake levels and softest suspension settings.
These Meta setups are typically suited for very experienced sim drivers who want the car to rotate on its own so that they can carry high minimum speed and get to full throttle quickly.
They’re not the best go-to setup to choose for beginners since the car, despite being stable, has really got a shit ton of rotation😅, and so would probably make the average beginner lose control driving it.
After you master the Porsche at Hungaroring and feel ready to level up your lap times, then this is the moment to switch to the Meta setup.
The “ESPO” setups, stands for “eSports” and should be your more stable version of the META setups.
This means it should be chosen after testing the SAFE setup and feeling the need to get some more rotation out of the car.
These ESPO setups have typically got a bit less rake, 1 click safer TC, a bit less rear toe to reduce rotation, similar dampers, safer rear bumpstop range and sometimes also safer rear anti-rollbar from the META setups.
The Qualy ESPO is still an aggressive setup, that should be chosen before taking the leap into the META one.
The “SAFE” setups are the ones specifically crafted for the average beginner or the less experienced ACC player, who still relies on a lot of stability and rear grip to have more confidence in the car.
There’s nothing wrong with using it, also because it will still give you very similar lap times to the other aggressive setups, but with a much more predictable car around Hungaroring.
The SAFE setup has got less rake, safer ARB settings, similar dampers, higher TC & ABS, brake bias a bit more to the front, less negative rear toe and a less aggressive bumpstop range configuration.
It should be your first choice if it’s your first time driving the Porsche GT3 R around Hungaroring.
When Should I Edit the Setups?
Our recommendation at SOLOX is always to test each setup well to the limit and only then (after 15/20 laps) adjust PSI and then make small changes.
This is because if you make changes right away before you even test the limit of the car, then they would result in being useless once you finally get to the limit, and maybe need to go back to the initial version.
Remember that in case the server temps are different to the ones recommended, then of course you have to change the tyre pressures right away.
Setup Changes We Suggest You to Do🔧
Excluding changes to the tyre pressures (and brake ducts) based on the air/track temps, these are the changes we suggest you make:
- ±1.5% Brake Bias (If you want more rotation or more rear stability on the brakes)
- ±1 TC1 (To Make it Sharper or Safer on Throttle)
- ±1 ABS (Based On Driver Preference)
- ±2mm Rear Ride height (To Change Downforce in High-Speed Corners)
- ±1 Rear Anti-Rollbar (For Low-Speed Mechanical Grip)
- ±1 Front/Rear Wheel Rate (For Low-Speed Mechanical Grip + Stability Over the Kerbs)
Remember before starting to make changes always have the tyres hot PSI between 26.6 and 27.0 since it’s when the tyre grip is at its highest performance.
One final note, the TC and ABS are set for optimal performance in “normal” dry conditions, but feel free to adjust them based on your preference or the different conditions you encounter as you race.
In fact, if you want to be more conservative on the rear tyres in the first few laps of a race, then go down 1 TC1 from the recommended one, and then put it back when you want to push a bit harder on the tyres later on in the stint.
Make sure you never change the ECU map from where we’ve set it since you may unexpectedly hurt your engine performance and lose time on the straights.
