The customer support is quick to react, but I am tired of setting up the app over and over again, because the data isnt getting through. When it works its nice, but in my case there were issues all th... See more

I'm fairly new to the world of sim racing and understand very little about setups. I wasn't sure if buying setups would be worth it for me as I'm usually a fair few seconds away from the "alien"... See more

What a waste of money

£££ Hundreds of pounds - almost Thousands of pounds paid in subscription fees and setups over the years and now they want more money because of the app that has features that I CANNOT use because I am on console and never intent to go to PC.

The setups take ages to catch up to the meta, almost a year from when ACC V1.8 came out that it took for the setups to catch up, but I stuck with them as CDA setups were always reliable before hand - little did i know i should have jumped ship to GO or HYMO years ago.

The support from JXXXX - I have left the name out as the review can be taken down for including it apparently - was awful - the theme of the conversation was practically "I dont give a f*** if you are only on console and cant use these features, you will pay the extra or leave". - this person genuinely couldnt have cared less.

Shame - I will never recommend CDA going forward.

Incredible value. The whole package is brilliant. More than just setups.

The range of setups is incredible. There are setups for both iRacing and ACC which are the two games I play. The setups are fast and drivable. The esports setups are undrivable for me I am not an esports driver so I don't think I would ever get the most out of them. I love the data analysis, the pro reference laps are where I find most of my time actually. Having pro data to compare to has been a god send.

coach who

coach who? I see I have better setups I like, I do not understand where is the coaching? I think what I am looking for is more like Track Titan that shows me how I am making the turns and and help me improve. yeah I have seen videos but it really I need to see where am I making the mistakes to be so slow, plus I do not see any thing how to use your app, for someone new it's confusing. but I will say again I like the setups for the cars, thanks Dave

Great staring point

I like where this is going. As a beginner, I do not profit as much from the setups but comparing all the included setups for each car and track gives me a better understanding. The automation of it all makes it easy to use. The included track maps, Popometer and Motec data give me lots of means to improve myself. thumbs up from me

Very good service!

Was skeptical to buy anything and was going to build my own setups. After reading a few reviews I bought a pack and started enjoying ACC races comfortably!

Good Drivers dont need this rubbish

For me I am very disappointed did not improve my time at any point actually on some tracks I am 1 sec slower.
On Bathurst I do 2.01.4 Quali 2.02.5-2.02.9s race.
With Dave Delta 1 sec slower on both and very taily.
I think these would be great for kids and below average drivers but if you can drive keep away you dont need this.
If you are any good I suggest you Buy Hymo or Go setups I have both so I dont know why i wasted $149 on this rubbish never to use again my mistake you learn as you go Keep away. They need to have an easy to understand file header for kids to make sense of yes RS is Race fast but M CDA CDAM and all the others please plain language for 12 year old to understand.

Sim Racer Must Have

As a novice Sim Racer, the setups speed up the process of finding the right setup for my style of racing. The process is pretty straight forward and the site is helpful in problem solving any issues. I continue to discover new strategies with setups among multiple platforms. A MUST HAVE if you really enjoy racing.
