I have been trying the new Cadwell track with a base level model (Arbarth - standard model) and running on DX9 I was only getting around 22-25fps sometimes dropping down to 19 in the twisty bits at the end. I have been struggling to better a 1m40s laptime.

Decided to reconfigure GTL and run it on DX7 mode. Now my FPS moves between 90FPS and 55FPS on the slowest parts and straight away did a 1m37s. !

If I gain that much I might run the online races in DX7 as it can slow down on there when other cars are around, possible top tip for you guys too

Try with VSync off or On. Try both.

The only stutters I ever get are when my PC's HDD starts to do something, that's annoying.

Just tried Hockenheim short in DX7 mode, gone half a second quicker straight away. I'm staying in DX7 for now

Configure GTL Legends, shortcut either in the 10tacle/GTL folder on your start menu or in the GTL folder itself called GTLConfig.
