Here’s my iRacing Late Model setup for Martinsville Speedway 2018 Season 4, version 2.This is similar to version 1 with a couple of changes. Both of the setups are fantastic.

I’ve been driving on dirt for a long time and I haven’t really been doing any asphalt. I did change the entry on this a little, but it’s loose for me because I’m used to charging the corners on dirt. If it’s still loose on entry, raise the brake balance and/or lower the left track bar. If it feels tight on entry, vice versa.

Here’s my setup for Martinsville Speedway 2018 Season 4, version 1. This is my favorite Late Model setup for Martinsville. Some guy may look at the springs and stagger and scratch his head. One might let his alligator mouth overload his jaybird brain in the official iRacing forums, but this setup is based in science. Before you criticize, you should take a remedial physics class. The stagger is very close to what really should be on a Late Model at Martinsville. The springs are simply softened up all the way around and adjusted to compensate for the increased stagger. It gives the car more traction and I think the tires wear better in longer runs.

Here’s my iRacing Late Model setup for Martinsville Speedway 2018 Season 4, version 3. This is a more conventional setup. The tire stagger is still quite a bit higher than what is in the iRacing default setup. I prefer either version 1 or version 2 with the scientifically correct stagger. If you’re a wheel man and you can finesse the car and take care of the tires, go for version 1 or version 2. If you’re a more aggressive driver with a heavy right foot, this version will probably work better for you but you still have to creep through the turns at this track.
