    Hi,
    The Porsche 911 GT3 Cup car is one of the best Raceroom's cars. It feels great through my DD wheel. However, I find it very difficult to drive and of course that is my problem.

    Therefore I would like to ask Raceroom community, any settings that you may have purposely made for achieving better handling, stability etc...please share if possible.

    Cheers.

    The best way is to keep driving on the default setting. Once you have mastered that then you can "fiddle" with the settings.
    However the default settings on the updated cars are very good. Also because they are updated "older" setups will possibly have an adverse affect.
    Aiming to lap consistently within a few tenths before you try to change stuff has always been recommended.

    Yes, I have some problems with this car, too. Especially the lift off oversteer is my problem.
    I know that I have to drive with all my experience, to not overdrive this little bitch.
    But LOO is heavy :)

    Find it really hard to drive too, but I keep on with it as I love it and suspect it is a very good training to get smooth on controls.
    My main pratice now is taking the Porsche GT4 on all tracks (main layout), learning the track, then 15min quali/15min races against adaptative AI. Once that is done I take the 911 cup for few laps on the just practiced track, and after more than a week doing that I can see some improvement, and that feels great :), I focus mainly on being smooth, n very slowly increasing pace once I can stay on track, easier said than done.
    I choose Porsche as gt4 specially for that purpose, seems a good preparation, line n weight transfer wise.

    The setup file indeed doesn't carry over properly, though the ideas behind the setup changes should still work :D

    I have/do drive the cup car in iracing/ac/acc and personally I find the car to be the most challenging in raceroom. You can lose the thing pretty easy, if one is not paying attention. I have only ever drove the car at the default setup myself, nordschleife and the cup car are a great combination.
