# RaceRoom Racing Experience

## Connection Method

**Shared Memory** — DR Sim Manager reads telemetry directly from RaceRoom's shared memory interface. No setup or configuration is needed.

## Setup Steps

1. Launch **RaceRoom Racing Experience**.
2. In DR Sim Manager, select **RaceRoom Racing Experience** from the Source list.
3. Click **Start Motion**.
4. Enter a session and drive — telemetry starts automatically.

No plugins, configuration files, or network settings are required.

## Available Telemetry

RaceRoom provides one of the most comprehensive telemetry datasets available:

- **Orientation**: Pitch, Roll, Yaw (high-precision double values)
- **Acceleration**: Full 3-axis local acceleration (high-precision)
- **Velocity**: Full 3-axis local velocity (high-precision)
- **Angular Velocity**: Full 3-axis local angular velocity (high-precision)
- **Speed**: Vehicle speed
- **RPM**: Engine RPM
- **Gear**: Current gear
- **Suspension**: 4-wheel deflection and velocity (high-precision doubles)
- **G-forces**: Local G-force data

### Telemetry Quality: ★★★★★

RaceRoom's shared memory interface provides high-precision double-precision values for all critical fields, making it excellent for motion platforms.

## Recommended Starting Settings

- **Primary Cue Gain**: 70–100%
- **Smoothing**: Low — the data is already very clean
- **Washout**: Medium

## Known Quirks

- **Free-to-play model**: RaceRoom is free to play with purchasable content packs. Telemetry works with all content, including the free content.
- **VR support**: Shared memory telemetry works identically in VR and flat screen modes.

## Troubleshooting

### No telemetry data

- Ensure RaceRoom is running and you are actively driving on track (not in menus or replays).
- Restart both RaceRoom and DR Sim Manager.

### Motion stops between sessions

- This is normal — telemetry data is only available while you are on track. It pauses in menus and loading screens.
