Porsche 962C

Overview

The Porsche 962C is part of LMC26 Grid5. It uses a Porsche WSC twin-turbo flat-six, 3.0 L. These figures describe the default LMC specification. This sheet covers the WSC engine used by the current entries; bodywork and tyre options depend on the selected entry.

LMC specifications

These values describe the mod physics and may differ from the historical car.

Specification Value
Mass (kg) 832 kg, excluding fuel
Engine and displacement Porsche WSC twin-turbo flat-six, 3.0 L
Transmission and number of gears Rear-wheel drive; 5 forward gears
Fuel capacity (l) 100 L maximum; 75 L default
Brakes Disc brakes; default balance 52% front / 48% rear
Tyres Default garage pressures: 135 kPa front / 135 kPa rear

Driving advice

Default weight distribution is 41.5% front / 58.5% rear. Brake balance can be adjusted while driving.

The default rev-limit setting is 8,200 rpm. The garage range is 8,000–8,300 rpm, in 100 rpm steps.

The vehicle options include different shifter control modes. Select the mode that matches your pedals and shifter; required throttle lift and clutch use depend on that selection.

Engine management and endurance

Engine life and temperature

The reference engine life is approximately 7.50 hours at 8,000 rpm and an oil temperature of 110 °C. There is no random variation in the initial lifetime. These conditions define the wear reference, not a recommended operating point or guaranteed race duration.

At constant oil temperature, each additional 150 rpm doubles the wear rate. At constant engine speed, each additional 2 °C of oil temperature doubles the wear rate. The effects combine; lower speeds and temperatures reduce wear relative to the reference conditions. Turbo operation also affects engine load; these reference values do not establish a guaranteed stint duration at every boost setting.

Fuel

The tank holds up to 100 L. The default load is 75 L. Consumption in L/lap and stint duration have not been measured for this specification.

Baseline setup

Setting Default Available adjustment
Fuel load 75 L Up to 100 L
Front tyre pressure 135 kPa (1.35 bar) 135–190 kPa, in 1 kPa steps
Rear tyre pressure 135 kPa (1.35 bar) 135–190 kPa, in 1 kPa steps
Brake balance 52% front / 48% rear 40–75% front, in 1 percentage-point steps
Brake pressure 100% 85–100%, in 1 percentage-point steps
Rev-limit setting 8,200 rpm 8,000–8,300 rpm, in 100 rpm steps

These are default garage settings and available ranges, not a circuit-specific race setup.

Specification notes

Specifications checked against the current local LMC car on 11 September 2026. Mass excludes fuel. Tyre pressures are garage settings. Power and torque are not quoted because final output depends on boost and LMC performance adjustments; verified in-game figures are not yet available.
