Drivers, Team Principals and Liveries

Team and Principal

The technical director for CORVETTE RACING TEAM is Randy Merrit.

“	With decades of experience as a racing engineer, Merrit made the move to Corvette in 2017. After successful seasons, he has taken the position of Technical Director in 2020.	”
	— In-game description.

Drivers and Liveries

This car comes with 2 assigned drivers, each with a unique car livery:

Forest Philips (United States): No. 3 (Corvette Racing Team)
“ After famously starting his career by sneaking into-and subsequently winning- a Pro/Am race, Phillips has always been a fan-favourite in Endurance racing. Though he's young, he's already earned an impressive number of victories. If he has his way, he's bound to earn many more. ” — In-game description.

Thomas Sallenbach (Switzerland): No. 4 (Corvette Racing Team)
“ A veteran of Endurance motorsports, Sallenbach has been racing - and winning - for over 20 years. Despite his impressive career, a 24 Hours of Le Mans victory has thus far eluded this Swiss legend - something he intends to change in 2020. ” — In-game description.

The player has the opportunity to change the driver (and car livery) at any time.
Assigning the lower level driver can lead to OMP score reset after cloud save/restore (please see here).

For upgrades including PR values, please see the project page RR3_Wiki:Upgrades_Section_(Classic_Version), please be aware that PR values can vary depending on the upgrade order.

Note: The only way to capture the PR data properly is as follows:

1. Cloud save
2. Capture and complete one upgrade at a time, from base
3. Pay gold to complete any M$ purchases
4. Check the data and complete the next upgrade, one at a time
5. Capture & complete all R$ upgrades before starting upgrades
6. Double check the data captured actually equals the M$ upgrade data (Base PR + M$ upgrade data = Max PR w/ M$)
7. Capture the car data for PR Max cash, (PR, Top Speed, Acc., Braking, Cornering, Cost, Parts) - change the device's settings between imperial and metric (Settings > Display > Display Speed: MPH | KPH) for top speed MPH/KPH and braking ft/m, do not use a calculation.
8. Continue to capture the remaining data, as before, one at a time, pay gold to complete M$ upgrades
9. Once all data has been captured double check the data captured actually equals the fully upgraded car data (Base PR + upgrade data = PR Fully upgraded)
10. Once the car is fully upgraded, capture the car data for Max PR w/ , (PR, Top Speed, Acc., Braking, Cornering, Cost, Parts) - change the device's settings between imperial and metric (Settings > Display > Display Speed: MPH | KPH) for top speed MPH/KPH and braking ft/m, do not use a calculation.
11. Cloud restore (to get all the gold back)

It is very time-consuming!
