    MCLAREN 570S GT4 // TIRES Tires C OLD AIR PRES SU RE Air pressure in the tire when the 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.

    MCLAREN 570S GT4 // CHASSIS Chassis FRONT ARB SE T T I NG Increasing the ARB setting shortens the ARB moment arm and will increase the roll stiffness of the front suspension, resulting in less body roll but increasing mechanical understeer. This can in some cases, lead to a more responsive steering feel for the driver.

    MCLAREN 570S GT4 // CHASSIS IN-CAR DIALS BR AK E PRES SU RE B I A S Brake Bias is the percentage of braking force that is being sent to the front brakes. Values above 50% result in greater pressure in the front brake line relative to the rear brake line which will shift the brake balance forwards increasing the tendency to lock up the front tyres but potentially increasing overall stability in braking zones.

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.
  • Page 14 MCLAREN 570S GT4 // CHASSIS SPRING PERCH OFF S E T 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.

Increasing rear ride height will decrease rear downforce as well as increase overall downforce and will allow for more weight transfer across the rear axle when cornering. Conversely, reducing ride height will increase rear downforce percentage but reduce overall downforce while reducing the weight transfer across the rear axle.

Increasing rebound damping will slow down the rate at which the damper extends in both low and high speed situations.
