This car is quite a beast - At the moment my Cobra weighs just 918 kg, but has 728 BHP. And with no downforce options, this car is just insane. :crazy:

To make it more manageable, all you can do is tweak the suspension, and hope for the best. Limited Slip also helps a LOT, since the default one doesn't really help much. If you want tiresmoke and drifting - just leave the default LSD in.

I think these settings will help, no matter how much your Cobra runs. Still, be gentle with the throttle on corner exits, and remember that the brakes are on the weak end of the scale.

Suspension:
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Ride height adjustment -14 -5
Spring Rate 10.0 5.8
Dampers Extension 1 1
Dampers compression 5 5
Anti roll bars 7 5


Wheel alignment:F R
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Camber angle: 2.0 1.0
Toe angle -0.20 0.50

Braking 7 1

Limited Slip Differential (LSD)
------------------------------------------------------------------
Initial Torque 5
Acceleration Sensitivity 45
Braking Sensitivity 8

The suspension han be harder on smooth tracks. This soft supension is for the Nordschleife. Bergverk - Kesselchen I-II and Tiergarten - Hohenrain will throw you off the track if you set yur suspension too hard.
 
Haha ye this car is brutal, you need to drive it with silken gloves and be very gentle ! I just done 90 laps on Laguna Seca with a bone stock Cobra and I love it to be honest, not gonna touch it at all and leave it bonestock accept running medium sport tyres !
 
I just ran using your settings, but with only 564hp (not sure how much more I could handle really). THANK YOU! I have tried so many tunes for this stunningly beautiful car but had given up on it. Your tune, especially the brake bias, are perfect. I now REALLY love this car.
Thanks and cheers.
