Week 8 Setups And Lap Guide Schedule – iRacing

Week 8 of Season 3 in iRacing arrives today, with setups and data now available for IMSA, VRS, GT4, F3, TCR’s and the Porsche Cup Series.

Week 8 Of Season 3 Has Been Released from Coach Dave Academy. 

Lap Guides 

For week 8 we have three different combinations to focus on, including two completely different cars and classes on one iconic circuit. 

  • Suellio Almeida in the Porsche Cup at Red Bull Ring 
  • Kieran Harrison Hyundai Veloster in the TCR category at Road America
  • Manu Rey O Largo in the Lamborghini Huracan GT3 at Road America

As you can see, Road America is going to be the flavour of the week with two of the major series visiting there this week in the form of IMSA and the TCR/GT4’s all for week 8. Want to see how different the two approaches from both drivers are in each class? Now is your chance to watch both guides above to see how you need to adapt your driving based on the speed/style of the car you are using. 

Elsewhere, our resident Porsche Cup expert Suellio Almeida is on hand to give you his expert analysis on week 8s location the Red Bull Ring, this time in national layout. A track with few corners, it is deceptively difficult to get right. Optimising kerb usage and input smoothness is critical to getting a good lap in.
