iRacing Asphalt Late Model Setups for Martinsville Speedway

Here's a Martinsville Speedway setup made by James Linkiewicz for 2016 Season 1. This is a fast setup because it's a loose setup. The problem is, you're going to start having problems with the car breaking loose on corner exit after about ten laps on this setup. I ran ten laps at a steady race pace and my right rear tire was about 12° hotter than my right front tire, and the car was beginning to feel very loose. Suggested tweaks: Change the rear end ratio to 4.93. Lower the right rear trailing arm mount to middle. Raise the cross weight to somewhere around 53% to 53.5%. Raise the right…

Here's my iRacing Late Model setup for Martinsville Speedway 2017 Season 2 (afternoon racing). The setup was tested using default weather and has enough fuel to run at least 50 green flag laps. The balance is pretty much perfect so it will last if you don't overdrive it.

UPDATE 8/14/17 - The car actually felt a little tight on the setup, and on very long runs (30+ laps) the right front was running a little hotter, so I raised the stagger a little bit more and made a couple of minor adjustments. On shorter runs the right rear was getting a little hotter but it turns around and goes the other way the longer you run. I would expect the car to get slightly loose somewhere between 10 and 15 laps then tighten up as you go on. I have two Martinsville Speedway 2017 Season 3 setups. For me, this setup is about a tenth faster than version…
