RaceNight
November 11, 2026

Last reviewed: November 12, 2026 · By the RaceYear team

Short answer: There's no single best app for dirt late model setups. PitLogic fits teams that need live editing from several phones. DirtTrack IQ fits shops running late models and sprint cars side by side. DirtBite fits a driver who wants setup calculators and an AI crew chief at a lower monthly price. RaceNight fits racers at no-signal tracks who want class templates and offline logging.

Key takeaways

  • Every fact about the other three apps below comes from that vendor's own site or App Store listing, checked November 12, 2026.
  • DirtBite lists DirtBite Pro at $7.99 a month or $59.99 a year on the App Store.
  • DirtTrack IQ lists a Driver plan at $7.99 a month and Team plans from $14.99 a month, and names Super, Crate, Pro, Sportsman and Street late models.
  • PitLogic advertises a free 2-week trial and live editing from multiple devices, but lists no price on its site.
  • RaceNight AI is $3.99 a month or $39.99 a year; RaceNight Pro is $12.99 a month or $99.99 a year, both with a 14-day free trial.

Disclosure: we make RaceNight. So the table below sticks to what each vendor publishes about itself. Where a vendor's page didn't say something, the cell says "not listed." That doesn't mean the feature is missing; it means you should ask before you pay.

What should a dirt late model setup app do?

It should hold the numbers a late model actually runs: four springs and shocks, bars, ride heights, stagger, tire pressures, cross weight and track conditions. Then it has to find them again fast at a track with no cell signal. After that, the questions are whether your crew needs to edit the same sheet, whether you can get a PDF out, and what it costs.

Who is each app a good fit for?

PitLogic: teams that edit together

PitLogic's features page says teammates can "view and make changes LIVE from multiple devices," and it adds shock sheets, gear charts, tire inventory and parts tracked by laps. If your car owner, crew chief and driver all touch the same sheet on race night, this is the clearest fit on the list. The catch: no price on the site, and late models aren't named on the features page.

DirtTrack IQ: shops running more than one kind of car

The DirtTrack IQ App Store listing names five late model types plus sprint cars, micro sprints, outlaw karts and dirt modifieds, with team plans and cloud sync. A shop running a crate late model and a 305 sprint car could keep both in one place. Offline use and PDF export aren't listed.

DirtBite: a driver on a budget who wants calculators and AI

The DirtBite App Store listing describes toe, caster split, stagger and load stick calculators, an AI Crew Chief and print-ready PDF sheets in Pro, at $7.99 a month or $59.99 a year. Its release notes mention an offline file fallback for dead-cell tracks. A free trial isn't listed.

RaceNight: racers at tracks with no signal

RaceNight works offline, so you can log and search setups with no bars. Pro adds setup sheets, class templates and Snap & Fill, which turns a photo of a paper sheet into a digital one, and it includes RacePrep for maintenance by laps. RaceNight AI is a cheaper plan with only the AI Crew Chief. What it doesn't do is live team editing; if that's your main need, PitLogic is the better buy.

How should you test a setup app before paying?

  1. Turn on airplane mode and try to open, log and search a setup.
  2. Enter one real sheet from your last race night and see if the fields fit your car.
  3. Export it as a PDF or printout, if the app offers that.
  4. Ask the vendor what happens to your history if you stop paying. Get the answer in writing.

Frequently asked questions

Which app is cheapest for a dirt late model?

Among plans with a published price, RaceNight AI is lowest at $3.99 a month, but it's AI only. For setup sheets, DirtBite Pro is $7.99 a month, the same as DirtTrack IQ's Driver plan, and RaceNight Pro is $12.99 a month. PitLogic doesn't list a price.

Which app is best for a team?

PitLogic advertises live editing from multiple devices. DirtTrack IQ sells team plans with cloud sync. RaceNight doesn't do live team editing.

Do these apps work without cell service?

RaceNight works offline. DirtBite mentions an offline file fallback in its release notes. DirtTrack IQ and PitLogic don't say either way, so test with airplane mode.
