IVGA - Don Wilshe Best MP Setups for Atlanta / Michigan

Drivers: First off I want to tell you that these setups will not make you an instant winner, they will not drive your car around the track, they might not even work for your chasis and tire combination and they might not even work for your control device or your computer, but they work for me and the way i do things. One thing it will do is even the pack. We have over 3000 drivers racing at mic and atl and this can get you in the TOP 10... IF YOU CAN DRIVE!!!!!!!!!!!!! Since the NASCAR 2.0 software is about to hit the street in late 1996 and I am always looking for a good race and I am gonna give you all a christmas gift. These setups are for Multi 1.36 and will be essentially useless for NASCAR 2.0 as it has different track characteristics and a better and improved physics engine. Not mention several old bugs fixed. My best setups for Michigan and Atlanta for a 16 lap sprint race and qualifying. It is: Tire Pressure 51,52,51,50, Stagger 1.000 Front and Rear Spoliers 3.5 and 70 degrees Shocks 95,100,100,94 Camber -2.70, +.060 Weights 1900, 1810, 50 Gear 3.60 Wheel Lock 5%, Non-Linear Steering!!! Yes I use the same setup for both Atl and Mic. Now this setup might not work for your chasis and tire combination. Each chasis is different and the tires work differently at different temperatures. The setup might need very slight adjustments if temperatures change. As you can see from the HAWAII MP races below I was able to run in some good company with a 10th fastest ever at Atlanta and a 2nd fastest at Michigan based on my current set of stats. I will probably fall a couple of notches with more current november 1996 data. With these same setup I was able to qualify at: Michigan. 04 Aug 96 23:12 DonWilsheIVGA 194.220 37.441 N 0mph 85F Atlanta. 16 Jun 96 22:42 DonWilsheIVGA 189.100 29.640 NW 7mph 85F As you can see I have used these setups at Atlanta and Michigan to post a couple of wins and some Top 5's. Now hopefully you can be a TOP 5 driver as well..

It would be neat if we could get HAWAII MP to load this setup as an IROC setup. Maybe someone could talk to HAWAII MP. If you are interested in racing against me, please send me an email.. We might have to have a few heat races to thin out the pack as many of you would like to tear off my bumper... Thanks Don Wilshe (941) 945-2587 PS.

Do you use this setup with a joystick or a wheel? DC

Don: Happy Thanksgiving, and Merry Christmas to you. Thanks for posting the Atlanta/Michigan setup. It doesn't look remarkably different from mine, with the caveat that I haven't had a chance to try yours and that mine IS 2 mph slower with my fat *** behind the wheel. Hope the Holidays go well for you and yours. Mark Mooney

Addendum: I tried your setup at both Mich and Atlanta. I added 5 more degrees steering lock. I could only run in the high 192's at Mich, and just over 187 at Atlanta. I want my money back.... Thanks again, it was fun to see what you had done differently than I to get the speed. Mark Mooney

Well...when I used this setup for Atlanta I added a good 3mph to my lap times. I can now go full throttle through all the turns rather than feathering the gas as I have done in the past. Unfortunately, it appears everyone on Hawaii has also started using this setup...because now half the field is turning 188-189 mph laps. Oh well..guess I've got more work to do. BTW, the same setup for Michigan killed my times..seemed undriveable to me. Guess it's a variance in driving style. Thanks for the posting though. Not all of us have the talent for setting a car up.
