Yeah, that's the thing. A setup is only as good as it's driver. Each driver has their own driving style and what may be fast for one person won't be for another person.
I just pulled out my GP3 Manual last night, (Can't find my GP4 Manual) and read the setup guide. I've never really read that before. Very informative! I think I'll be using that to improve upon my setups for next season! Finally I understand some things about weight distribution and how it effects the cars performance! Which seems to be the main focus of that setup guide!

If it's got a load of understeer, then it's my kind of setup. It's boring having to pull the back end into line all the time through corners, it's nice when you can accelerate and the wheels actually turn sharper (made a setup for the default physics that did that at monaco, no one could touch me!)

Well, there's always going to be a rough setup that is good for anyone, but then you'll want to fine tune things. For instance you're going to have a hard time at Monaco with no wing or at Hockenheim with full downforce, so it's always good to find a setup that someone put a lot of effort in creating and then changing the bits you don't like.

Hmmm...my setups normally tend to oversteer...I like having to control the rear in corners

I think the best setup I made was for Montreal. The Monaco one was good, but the Montreal one I made a while back was quality. I've noticed that unless you put loads of grip into the car, the chicane before the hairpin will not yield if you touch the kerbs, and you tend to spin into the wall. On this setup I spent ages working on, you could take any kerb, and the car would just happily bounce over it and land on the other side with no troubles.
That'd be a problem with a track I'm working atm though, the kerbs are 30cm high!
