I haven't really delved into the setup variations in AC. Last night I was on the default set, but threw on medium tyres for the race. What sort of parameters are you tweaking on the setup?
Wow the default setup for me was the best out of the bunch of cars but I still made some changes, my hotlap setup is attached somewhere in this thread. You did well to use it and get that speed out of it.
I tweak a bit of everything, sometimes with bad consequences but I go through about 10 variations of setups each one building upon the one before it. I usually start with the aero to see if low or high downforce is quicker + adjusting the gearing to suit. Then I fine tune the suspension to suit my driving style and the track conditions. At this stage I'm usually on sticky tyres for a decent hotlap. Lastly I test the tyres for a race length if I have enough time and adjust ARBs, brakes and maybe aero again to create a stable race setup. If time behind the wheel isn't much then I'll just build a race setup and use that for the hotlaps and qual.
