DEAR iRACING USER,
Congratulations on your purchase of the Lamborgini Huracán GT3 EVO! From all of us at iRacing, we
appreciate your support and your commitment to our product. We aim to deliver the ultimate sim racing
experience, and we hope that you’ll find plenty of excitement with us behind the wheel of your new car!
Years of racing heritage come together in the Lamborghini Huracán GT3 EVO, Lamborghini’s latest GT3
challenger in sports car racing series from around the world. Developed in house in Sant’Agata Bolognese
by Lamborghini Squadra Corse, the Huracán GT3 EVO builds on the winning formula of its predecessor, the
Huracán GT3, with improved aerodynamics developed in conjunction with Dallara and a powerful 5.2-liter
V10 engine.
2020 was a banner year for the car, with a clean sweep of the IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar
Championship’s driver and team titles in both its full-season and endurance race standings for Paul Miller
Racing. Across the Atlantic, Barwell Motorsport ran the car to Lamborghini’s first British GT title, while a
class victory in the 24 Hours of Spa and multiple GT World Challenge victories rounded out a stellar season.
The following guide explains how to get the most out of your new car, from how to adjust its settings off of
the track to what you’ll see inside of the cockpit while driving. We hope that you’ll find it useful in getting up
to speed.
Thanks again for your purchase, and we’ll see you on the track!

Introduction
The information found in this guide is intended to provide a deeper understanding of the
chassis setup adjustments available in the garage, so that you may use the garage to tune
the chassis setup to your preference.
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. After you have selected an appropriate setup, get on track and focus on
making smooth and consistent laps, identifying 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 preferences.
GETTING STARTED
Before starting the car, it is recommended to map controls for Brake Bias, Traction Control and ABS adjustments. 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; the car’s downshift
protection will not allow you to downshift if it feels 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 when the shift lights on the dashboard are fully illuminated in blue. This is at approximately 8000 rpm.

LOADING AN iRACING SETUP
When you first load into a session, the iRacing Baseline setup will be automatically loaded onto the car. 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 Bristol.
If 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. 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 well.

Tires & Aero
TIRE SETTINGS (ALL FOUR TIRES)
COLD AIR PRESSURE
This represents the amount of air pressure used to inflate the tire when car is loaded into the world. Higher pressures will reduce
rolling drag and heat buildup, but will decrease grip. Lower pressures will increase rolling drag and heat buildup, but will increase
grip. Higher speeds and loads require higher pressures, while lower speeds and loads will see better performance from lower
pressures. Cold pressures should be set to track characteristics for optimum performance. Generally speaking, it is advisable to
start at lower pressures and work your way upwards as required.
ADVANCED SETUP OPTIONS
This section is aimed toward more advanced users who want to dive deeper into the different aspects
of the vehicle’s setup. Making adjustments to the following parameters is not required and can lead to
significant changes in the way a vehicle handles. It is recommended that any adjustments are made in
an incremental fashion and only singular variables are adjusted before testing changes.
LAMBORGHINI HURACÁN GT3 EVO | ADVANCED SETUP OPTIONS | TIRES & AERO

13LAMBORGHINI HURACÁN GT3 EVO | USER MANUAL
HOT AIR PRESSURE
This represents the amount of air pressure present in the tire after the car has returned to the pits. The difference between cold
and hot pressures can be used to identify how the car is progressing through a run in terms of balance, with heavier-loaded tires
seeing a larger difference between cold and hot pressures. Ideally, tires that are worked in a similar way should build pressure
at the same rate to prevent a change in handling balance over the life of the tire, so cold pressures should be adjusted to ensure
that similar tires are at similar pressures once up to operating temperature. Hot pressures should be analysed once the tires
have stabilised after a period of laps. As the number of laps per run will vary depending upon track length a good starting point is
approximately 50% of a full fuel run.
TIRE TEMPERATURES
This represents the tire carcass temperatures (measured via Pyrometer) once the car has returned to the pits. Wheel Loads and
the amount of work a tire is doing on-track is reflected in the tire’s temperature, and these values can be used to analyze the car’s
handling balance. Center temperatures are useful for directly comparing the work done by each tire, while the Inner and Outer
temperatures are useful for analyzing the wheel alignment (predominantly camber) while on track. These values are measured in
three zones across the tread of the tire. Inside, middle and Outer.
TREAD REMAINING
The amount of tread remaining on the tire once the car has returned from the pits. Tire wear is very helpful in identifying
any possible issues with alignment, such as one side of the tire wearing excessively, and can be used in conjunction with tire
temperatures to analyze the car’s handling balance. These values are measured in the same zones as those of temperature.
AERODYNAMICS
WING SETTING
The wing setting refers to the relative angle of attack of the rear wing; this is a powerful aerodynamic device which has a
significant impact upon the total downforce (and drag!) produced by the car, as well as shifting the aerodynamic balance of the car
rearwards with increasing angle. Increasing the rear wing angle results in more total cornering grip capability in medium to high
speed corners but will also result in a reduction of straight line speed. Rear wing angle should be adjusted in conjunction with front
and rear ride heights, specifically the difference between front and rear ride heights known as “rake”. To retain the same overall
aerodynamic balance it is necessary to increase the rake of the car when increasing the rear wing angle.
AERO CALCULATOR
This calculator is a reference tool ONLY. The Aero Calculator is a tool provided to aid in understanding the shift in aerodynamic
balance associated with adjustment of the rear wing setting and front and rear ride heights. It is important to note that the values
for front and rear ride height displayed here DO NOT result in any mechanical changes to the car itself, however, changes to the
rear wing angle here WILL be applied to the car.

14LAMBORGHINI HURACÁN GT3 EVO | USER MANUAL
FRONT RH AT SPEED
The Ride Height (RH) at Speed is used to give the Aero Calculator heights to reference for aerodynamic calculations. When using
the aero calculator, determine the car’s Front Ride height via telemetry at any point on track and input that value into the “Front
RH at Speed” setting. It is advisable to use an average value of the LF and RF ride heights as this will provide a more accurate
representation of the current aero platform rather than using a single corner height.
REAR RH AT SPEED
The Ride Height (RH) at Speed is used to give the Aero Calculator heights to reference for aerodynamic calculations. When using
the aero calculator, determine the car’s Rear Ride height via telemetry at any point on track and input that value into the “Front
RH at Speed” setting. It is advisable to use an average value of the LR and RR ride heights as this will provide a more accurate
representation of the current aero platform rather than using a single corner height.
FRONT DOWNFORCE
This value displays the proportion of downforce acting at the front axle for the given wing and ride height combination set within
the calculator parameters. This value is an instantaneous representation of your aero balance at this exact set of parameters and
it can be helpful to pick multiple points around a corner or section of track to understand how the aerodynamic balance is moving
in differing situations such as braking, steady state cornering and accelerating at corner exit. A higher forwards percentage will
result in more oversteer in mid to high speed corners.

Chassis
FRONT END
ARB BLADES
The configuration of the Anti-Roll Bar arms, or “blades”, can be changed to alter the overall stiffness of the ARB assembly. Higher
values transfer more force through the arms to the ARB itself, increasing roll stiffness in the front suspension and producing
the same effects, albeit on a smaller scale, as increasing the diameter of the sway bar. Conversely, lower values reduce the
roll stiffness of the front suspension and produce the same effects as decreasing the diameter of the sway bar. These blade
adjustments can be thought of as fine-tuning adjustments between sway bar diameter settings. 6 ARB blade options are available
ranging from 1-1 (softest) to 3-3 (stiffest).
ARB OUTER DIAMETER
The ARB (Anti-Roll Bar) size influences the stiffness of the front suspension in roll, such as when navigating a corner. Increasing
the ARB size will increase the roll stiffness of the front suspension, resulting in less body roll but increasing mechanical understeer.
This can also, in some cases, lead to a more responsive steering feel from the driver. Conversely, reducing the ARB size will
soften the suspension in roll, increasing body roll but decreasing mechanical understeer. This can result in a less-responsive feel
from the steering, but grip across the front axle will increase. 4 configurations of ARB diameter are available and range from
disconnected (softest) to large (stiffest).
LAMBORGHINI HURACÁN GT3 EVO | ADVANCED SETUP OPTIONS | CHASSIS

16LAMBORGHINI HURACÁN GT3 EVO | USER MANUAL
TOE-IN
Toe is the angle of the wheel, when viewed from above, relative to the centerline of the chassis. Toe-in is when the front of the
wheel is closer to the centerline than the rear of the wheel, and Toe-out is the opposite. On the front end, adding toe-out will
increase slip in the inside tire while adding toe-in will reduce the slip. This can be used to increase straight-line stability and turn-in
responsiveness with toe-out. Toe-in at the front will reduce turn-in responsiveness but will reduce temperature buildup in the front
tires.
FRONT MASTER CYLINDER
The Front Brake Master Cylinder size can be changed to alter the line pressure to the front brake calipers. A larger master
cylinder will reduce the line pressure to the front brakes, this will shift the brake bias rearwards and increase the pedal effort
required to lock the front wheels. A smaller master cylinder will do the opposite and increase brake line pressure to the front
brakes, shifting brake bias forward and reducing required pedal effort. 7 Different master cylinder options are available ranging
from 15.9 mm / 0.626” (highest line pressure) to 23.8 mm / 0.937” (lowest line pressure).
REAR MASTER CYLINDER
The Rear Brake Master Cylinder size can be changed to alter the line pressure to the rear brake calipers. A larger master cylinder
will reduce the line pressure to the rear brakes, this will shift the brake bias forwards and increase the pedal effort required to
lock the rear wheels. A smaller master cylinder will do the opposite and increase brake line pressure to the rear brakes, shifting
brake bias rearward and reducing required pedal effort. 7 Different master cylinder options are available ranging from 15.9 mm /
0.626” (highest line pressure) to 23.8 mm / 0.937” (lowest line pressure).
BRAKE PADS
The vehicle’s braking performance can be altered via the Brake Pad Compound. The “Low” setting provides the least friction,
reducing the effectiveness of the brakes, while “Medium” and “High” provide more friction and increase the effectiveness of the
brakes while increasing the risk of a brake lockup.
CROSS WEIGHT
The percentage of total vehicle weight in the garage acting across the right front and left rear corners. 50.0% is generally optimal
for non-oval tracks as this will produce symmetrical handling in both left and right hand corners providing all other chassis settings
are symmetrical. Higher than 50% cross weight will result in more understeer in left hand corners and increased oversteer in
right hand corners, cross weight can be adjusted by making changes to the spring perch offsets at each corner of the car.
LAMBORGHINI HURACÁN GT3 EVO | ADVANCED SETUP OPTIONS | CHASSIS

17LAMBORGHINI HURACÁN GT3 EVO | USER MANUAL
IN-CAR DIALS
BRAKE PRESSURE BIAS
Brake Bias is the percentage of braking force that is being sent to the front brakes. Values above 50% result in more pressure
being sent to the front master cylinder, while values less than 50% send more force to the rear master cylinder. This should be
tuned for both driver preference and track conditions to get the optimum braking performance for a given situation. It is important
to note that differing combinations of master cylinder size will necessitate differing brake pressure bias values, this is because
increasing or reducing the split in master cylinder size difference between front and rear axles will produce an inherent forward or
rearward bias in brake line pressure.
TRACTION CONTROL SETTING
The position of the traction control switch determines how aggressively the ecu cuts engine torque in reaction to rear wheel spin.
12 positions are available but only 10 maps exist. Settings 1-10 range from least intervention/sensitivity (position 1) through
to highest intervention/sensitivity (position 10). Position 11 is the same as position 10 and position 12 disables the traction
control completely. Positions 3 and 4 are the manufacturer recommended baseline settings. More intervention will result in
less wheelspin and less rear tire wear but can reduce overall performance if the traction control is cutting engine torque too
aggressively and stunting corner exit acceleration.
THROTTLE SHAPE SETTING
Throttle shape setting refers to how changes in the drivers pedal position result in changes in provided engine torque. 3 positions
exist, position 1 results in a linear torque map relative to throttle position (e.g. 10% throttle position results in 10% engine torque,
50% throttle position results in 50% engine torque and so on.). Position 3 emulates a non-linear S shaped map similar to a cable
throttle which results in reduced fidelity in the middle portion of the throttle range. Position 2 is a hybrid of position 1 and 3
throttle mapping styles.
ENGINE MAP SETTING
The fuel map on which the car is currently running. Position 1 is the base map and produces maximum power but the most fuel
usage. Positions 2 through 11 are for fuel saving under green flag conditions and will reduce engine power output correspondingly.
The higher the number the better the fuel economy but the lower the power output. Position 12 is for saving fuel under safety car
conditions and is not recommended for normal usage.
LAMBORGHINI HURACÁN GT3 EVO | ADVANCED SETUP OPTIONS | CHASSIS

18LAMBORGHINI HURACÁN GT3 EVO | USER MANUAL
ABS SETTING
The current ABS map the car is running. Similar to the traction control setting, 12 positions are available but only 10 maps exist.
Position 1 has the least intervention/support while position 10 has the most support. Position 11 is the same as position 10
and position 12 disables the ABS completely. Positions 4 is the manufacturer recommended baseline setting. More intervention
reduces the possibility of and the duration of lockups during braking but can result in longer braking distances if the system is set
overly aggressive for the amount of available grip.
DISPLAY PAGE

night and 2 for qualifying. The race options are identical in terms of displayed information but with differing background colour
while the qualifying options are similar in style but display different information.
ENDURANCE LIGHT PACKAGE
This setting determines if the car is fitted with an additional
light bar on the nose for increased light output during night
races.

FRONT CORNERS
CORNER WEIGHT
The weight underneath each tire under static conditions in the garage. Correct weight arrangement around the car is crucial for
optimizing a car for a given track and conditions. Individual wheel weight adjustments and crossweight adjustments are made via
the spring perch offset adjustments at each corner.
FRONT RIDE HEIGHT
Distance from ground to a reference point on the chassis. Since these values are measured to a specific reference point on the
car, these values may not necessarily reflect the vehicle’s ground clearance, but instead provide a reliable value for the height of
the car off of the race track at static values. Adjusting Ride Heights is key for optimum performance, as they can directly influence
the vehicle’s aerodynamic performance as well as mechanical grip. Increasing front ride height will decrease front downforce
as well as decrease overall downforce, but will allow for more weight transfer across the front axle when cornering. Conversely,
reducing ride height will increase front and overall downforce, but reduce the weight transfer across the front axle. Minimum legal
front ride height is 50.0 mm.
SPRING PERCH OFFSET
Used to adjust the ride height at this corner of the car by changing the installed position of the spring. Increasing the spring perch
offset will result in lowering this corner of the car while reducing the spring perch offset will raise this corner of the car. These
changes should be kept symmetrical across the axle (left to right) to ensure the same corner ride heights and no change in cross
weight. The spring perch offsets can also be used in diagonal pairs (LF to RR and RF to LR) to change the static cross weight in
the car.
SPRING SELECTED/SPRING RATE
This setting determines the installed corner spring stiffness. Stiffer springs will result in a smaller variance in ride height between
high and low load cases and will produce superior aerodynamic performance through improved platform control however, they
will also result in increased tire load variation which will manifest as a loss in mechanical grip. Typically the drawbacks of stiffer
springs will become more pronounced on rougher tracks and softer springs in these situations will result in increased overall
performance. Corner spring changes will influence both roll and pitch control of the platform and ARB changes should be
considered when altering corner spring stiffnesses in order to retain the same front to rear roll stiffness and overall balance.
When reducing corner spring stiffness the ARB stiffness (either via blade or diameter depending on the size of the corner spring
change) should be increased to retain the same roll stiffness as previously. 6 options for spring rate are available ranging from
LAMBORGHINI HURACÁN GT3 EVO | ADVANCED SETUP OPTIONS | CHASSIS

20LAMBORGHINI HURACÁN GT3 EVO | USER MANUAL
160 N/mm (914 lbs/in) to 280 N/mm (1600 lbs/in). The first portion of the range from 160 N/mm (914 lbs/in) to 250 N/
mm (1429 lbs/in) is in 30 N/mm (172 lbs/in) steps for coarse adjustment while the final 3 rates are stepped in 15 N/mm (86
lbs/in) steps for fine adjustment. Spring perch offsets must be adjusted to return the car to the prior static ride heights after any
spring rate change.
COMPRESSION DAMPING
The compression damping setting is a paired adjustment controlling both the low and high speed damping characteristics
of the damper. In this case -24 is minimum damping (least resistance to compression) while 0 is maximum damping (most
resistance to compression). Increasing the compression damping will result in a faster transfer of weight to this corner of the
car during transient movements such as braking and direction change with increased damping usually providing an increase in
turn-in response but a reduction in overall grip in the context of front dampers. High speed compression damping will increase
proportionally to the increase in low speed compression damping which will also result in harsher response to kerb strikes. At
smoother tracks more compression damping will typically increase performance while at rougher tracks or ones with aggressive
kerbs less compression damping can result in an increase in mechanical grip at the expense of platform control.
REBOUND DAMPING
The Rebound damping setting is a paired adjustment to both low and high speed rebound damping characteristics. Increasing
rebound damping will slow down the rate at which the damper extends in both low and high speed situations. A typical low damper
speed situation would be as the car rolls back to level on a corner exit while a high speed situation would be where the suspension
is extending after large kerb contact. -24 is minimum damping (least resistance to extension) while 0 is maximum damping (most
resistance to extension). While high rebound stiffness will result in improved platform control for aerodynamic performance and
overall chassis response it is important to avoid situations where the shock is too slow in rebounding as this will result in the tire
losing complete contact with the track surface which can induce or exacerbate severe oscillations.
CAMBER
Camber is the vertical angle of the wheel relative to the center of the chassis. Negative camber is when the top of the wheel is
closer to the chassis centerline than the bottom of the wheel, positive camber is when the top of the tire is farther out than the
bottom. Due to suspension geometry and corner loads, negative camber is desired on all four wheels. Higher negative camber
values will increase the cornering force generated by the tire, but will reduce the amount of longitudinal grip the tire will have
under braking. Excessive camber values can produce very high cornering forces but will also significantly reduce tire life, so it is
important to find a balance between life and performance. Increasing front camber values will typically result in increased front
axle grip during mid to high speed cornering but will result in a loss of braking performance and necessitate a rearward shift in
brake bias to compensate.
CASTER
Caster is the vertical angle of the steering axis relative to the side view of the chassis. Positive caster angle is where the steering
axis is leaned rearwards from this viewpoint, the more caster the larger the total trail of the contact patch behind the steering
axis. More caster angle will result in the mechanical trail being a larger proportion of the felt steering weight relative to the tires
pneumatic trail. This will result in a heavier overall steering feel but a possible loss in felt feedback from the tire. Increasing caster
angle will also have secondary effects such as an increase in dynamic camber when turning the wheel through large steering
angles which can be beneficial in chicances or hairpins. As well as this the more caster angle the greater the jacking effect during
cornering which will result in lifting the inside front wheel while lowering the outside front wheel. This jacking effect will also result
in the unloading and potentially lifting of the inside rear wheel which can aid in rotation around tight corners.
