The default setups are pretty good once you've taken out most of the
fuel, and of course each car is different to drive anyway, so you could
find one you like that way.
If you really want to go fast, though, Schubi's website at
http://www.racesimcentral.net/~schubi/index.htm lists the top 100 hotlaps for
each track, with a replays and setup for each hotlap, so you can take
your pick!
Personally I use Wolfgang Woeger's Lotus setups, which was a bit of a
shock to say the least when I first tried them, as he uses 200lb
rollbars front and rear, so it was like driving on ice for a while!
Now that I can more or less point the car in a straight line, though, I
find I'm going much faster with his setups than with the defaults - it
oversteers much more easily, but that makes the turns faster.
Anyway, the great thing about this site is that the setups have
definitely been proven!
