Two Tricky Tracks, One Fast Porsche – Week 7 LFM

Week 7 of LFM Season 12 has now been launched by Coach Dave with the latest Meta setups for the 4 supported cars.

Week 7 of Low Fuel Motorsport Season 12 has now begun, and the Coach Dave team have been hard at work to produce setups ready for this week’s action. Two very tricky combinations to look forward to this week, Imola and the kerbs provide the usual problems with bouncing and bottoming out. Pairing Imola this week is Bathurst, where dodging walls will be critical, you can see how the 4 cars compare below

Coach Dave LFM Meta Setup Recap

What Do I Receive With These New Setups?

These new LFM setups will be created with the custom BOP applied. Trending away from what we normally do, these setups will also be created with all the meta trends applied, which means the setups will be both aggressive and tricky to drive. We are gunning for overall lap time and therefore offer a completely different dynamic to the other CDA4 setups we already offer to customers.

Included then for each series are as follows: 

  • 1 Qualifying Setup 
  • 1 Race Setup 
  • Motec data of the fastest lap 
  • Onboard lap posted on YouTube 
  • Popometer data package for the fastest lap 

Supported Cars 

For the start of this new experiment, we will be doing setups for the 4 cars that have the highest entry statistics so far for season 12 on LFM. This means we will be doing setups for the following cars: 

  • Ferrari 296 GT3 
  • McLaren 720s GT3 EVO 
  • Porsche 992 GT3R 
  • BMW M4 GT3 

These 4 cars make up the highest number of race entries so far this season and they will receive setups for both the Coach Dave Sprint Series and the SimRace Shop series. 

What Is The New Naming Convention? 

Given these new Meta setups follow a very different philosophy to our existing setups, they will also have a slightly different name in Delta. We will be dropping the version number from the name and the variant. This is because they will be constantly changed and updated based on the LFM calendars and physics updates. 


The naming convention example then is as follows: 

  • CDA M M4 GT3 BAR Q 
  • CDA M M4 GT3 BAR R 

The M stands for “Meta”, which will allow customers to distinguish it from the normal CDA4 setups. It will look like this in Delta:
