TRL Limitless Setups
TRL Limitless is a Youtuber and legendary F1 league racer for TRL and AOR;

http://www.youtube.com/user/JDisMoNsTeR

He is one of the fastest xbox F1 racers and creates hotlap and setup videos, which I have always used and found helpful. He has given permission for me to share them here for us.
Workshop
These setups can be found by loading a setup from the steam workshop. Please note you need to browse the workshop and subscribe to the setup to appear in the game list. They are all called; TRL Limitless followed by the track, (ie. TRL Limitless Australia).
Format
I will post the setups in the following format, (further help is at the bottom);

(Aerodynamics) Front wing aero, rear wing aero
(Transmission) Differential adjustment on throttle, differential adjustment off throttle
(Suspension Geometry) Front camber, rear camber, front toe, rear toe
(Suspension) Front Suspension, rear suspension, front anti-roll bar, rear anti-roll bar, front ride height, rear ride height

Help using setups
Setups can be altered from the tablet. You can load a setup including from the workshop or modify each category to the settings above. When you are happy with a setup, you can save them for later or multiplayer. Note you cannot edit setups before a race, only load a saved setup, and only then if Parc Ferme is turned off in the race settings. If you have any questions, ask below.
Tweaking setups basics
Setup guide video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_RHIoYRmWaU

This is a very basic idea how to tweak settings to your driving style, watch the vid for more info.

Aerodynamics, the higher the value, the more downforce, and the easier it will be to corner the car, but it will be slower in a straight line. Recommend using values 4,3 as lowest for high speed tracks such as Italy, and up to 11,11 for slow tracks like Monaco.

Transmission. By increasing on throttle you can hope to accelerate quicker out of corners and make turning more responsive, but potentially lose out on turning stability and tyre wear.

Suspension Geometry. As a basic rule, move the sliders to the right for camber and to the left for toe to increase cornering speed. Do the opposite for going fast and acceleration. Leave them in the middle for balance and tyre happiness.

Suspension can be altered such as raising the front amount to increase speed and turn, but will hurt your tyres. Many setups in this guide use 11, 10, 11, 5, 6, 5.

Brake pressure should be set to preference. Increasing this will make them more responsive, but likely to result in more lockups. Moving break bias toward the front will slow the car quicker in a straight line, but will cause lockups if you brake as you turn.

Tyre pressure can be increased for speed and fast corners, but will cause your tyres to heat easier, which can cause the most wear.

Weight distribution set higher will improve corner turn in, but will make it harder to control the back end on exit.
Thanks & about
Thanks to TRL Limitless for permissions and for making great setup and tip videos, keep tuned to his YT for these and more.

Disclaimer, I am not good at this game, and when I looked for guides on previous games I couldn’t find anything useful on steam. I thought I would add this as a quick reference or to help any new players looking to improve. If I’ve made any errors, please leave a comment. Happy racing.

Also, why not check out http://www.apexonlineracing.com if you think your good enough, or want to watch those who are. Hopefully 2016 leagues will be starting soon.

good for rain?

Why can't I change my rear toe to 0.34? I can only set it to .35 or .32

They work for all cars. JD made these setups when the game came out, and they are a great place to start rather than the default setups. Shame no one is really uploading any new content to YT for F1-2016 though...

Thanks!
I'd just like to know if these setup work for all cars (all teams) or it is just for the Mercedes car?

Check out the results thread here;
http://apexonlineracing.com/community/threads/aor-pc-split-5-results-standings.15947/

You can see quali and fastest lap for each race in Tier 5 (the bottom PC league for this season, this is no assists strict rules). They've just done round 8 - Baku. I think it's inclusive, but I would guess about expert AI level as bottom.

Search Youtube for "TRL Limitless" for his perspective, or "AOR Fisi" for overall highlights. Search for "CalHD1" if you want to watch a PC player in Tier 2. Probably loads of others as well.

Probably keep an eye out in Feb / March if you want to join the next season, you should definately submit your times, good luck :)
