Sprint car racing setups

Whereas files that do work are usually around 2kb in size. Again, older setups are kept for a reason — people still download and use them. I have loaded setups from Season 2 for that car and they load and work just fine, no problems at all.

Sometimes there is gold in those older setups. South Boston late models. Hey guys, I dont know if there is a prob on my end or what but it is the first time it has happened to me downloading setups.

Darlington Xfinity Camaro There are only 2 of em and both wont load into Iracing garage. It might be me on my end as the files are named stupid to me anyways, stockcars2camaro, Is that the right car folder? Ive tried to do a google search but I cant find any answers. I must be wording it wrong perhaps. I am unable to download any setup no matter what I try to open the download with.

When it does download, it is in a foreign language. Download to the correct location. Search for the right way to do it. Is this true? In fact, seems many of the setups I find are suddenly years old for the latest, usually have found anything I want and fairly new. Have I missed an update or routed to an older page? Hello Jeff, thanks for maintaining the site. I really appreciate all the work on your end to keep in going. I just donated to cause as well, to help cover some of your costs.

Is there a way to download the files in bulk. Like all the dirt setups or all asphalt setups at one time?

Are your set ups for A class oval asphalt now for the next gen cars. Can you give me some help here please. Been using you guys for a while now.

Thanks, Ryan. Your email address will not be published. Dirt setups: EldoraOSRacing. Some setup file names may vary. For many setups, I have no track usage information.

Comments Thanks for all these iRacing setups! Yes i will take care of it. This page sometimes gets overlooked when other things get changed. I downloaded the setup but its not in my setups in iracing?? S Need to clean out old setups. Could you be more specific on which setups are failing?

Like I stated above, a sprint car wing is essentially an airplane wing turned upside down. So, instead of creating lift, it creates down force. The down force is created when the air moving under the wing, moves faster than the air moving over the wing. What this does is it creates a low pressure spot under the wing, and a high pressure spot on top of the wing.

Naturally, air wants to move from high pressure areas to low pressure areas, this is also the same principal that causes wind. With the high pressure area wanting to get to the low pressure spot, the air in the high pressure spot moves towards that direction, but the wing is in the way.

The rules these days are regulated so much that it is hard to be able to do much with the wings, as far as the general size and shape. What teams can do however, is move the wing around on the car. If the track gets dry slick and you need to find grip, many teams will stand the back of the wing up. This creates more down force, as well as more drag on the car.

When the track is heavy and sticky, a team will keep the rear edge of the wing lowered and keep it forward on the car to help free the car up. The typical starting point for the top wing will be anywhere between degrees, depending on the track and the conditions. The nose wing is usually even with the down tubes on the race car, which is approximately 30 degrees.

My general rule of thumb on a short track is that you want to be able to lay a straight edge across both your top and nose wing and have it touch the front and back edges on both wings. In theory, that creates the most efficient air transfer from the front wing to the top wing.

On a longer half mile track, I will typically drop the back of the top wing to reduce some of the drag with the higher speed track. Drivers can even move the wing from the cockpit of the car as they are racing.

During the race, if the car starts to get looser on the driver they will reach up and grab the wing valve, pulling the wing back.

Sometimes a driver will get too happy with the wing valve and pull the wing back too far. If this happens, they will need to wait until a caution comes out to be able to move the wing back forward. That is, unless someone has a Sweet Manufacturing Steering system with their pump, valve, and ram. The Sweet system is capable of moving the wing forward at speed in most cases. The adjustability of the wing is going to be your biggest adjustment period in a race car. Moving your wing back will most likely tighten the car up more than any adjustment on the race car will once the track goes away.

Likewise, if you are trying to free up the race car, moving the wing back forward will be your biggest adjustment you can make to the car. For the most part, any other adjustability is outlawed across the board. The driver is only allowed to control the wing from the car front to back, and the crew can adjust the wing up and down while in the pit area.
