Drag racing is a competition in which vehicles compete to be the first to cross a set finish line, usually from a standing start, and in a straight line. Most drag races begin with a standing (stationary) start and are just 1/4 mile long (1,320 ft (400 m)). Elapsed times range between mid-4 seconds to 23 seconds, with finishing speeds (trap speeds) ranging from 60 mph to over 330 mph (530 km/h), depending upon the type of vehicle. Faster vehicles need a parachute (mandated by rules) to slow down.

  • Drag racing is a competition in which vehicles compete to be the first to cross a set finish line, usually from a standing start, and in a straight line. Most drag races begin with a standing (stationary) start and are just 1/4 mile long (1,320 ft (400 m)). Elapsed times range between mid-4 seconds to 23 seconds, with finishing speeds (trap speeds) ranging from 60 mph to over 330 mph (530 km/h), depending upon the type of vehicle. Faster vehicles need a parachute (mandated by rules) to slow down. Before each race (also known as a pass), each driver is allowed to perform a burnout, which heats the tires and lays rubber down at the beginning of the track, improving traction. Each driver then lines up (or stages) at the starting line. Races are started with a flag waving or arm drop, usually by a guest celebrity. The winner is the first vehicle to cross the finish line (and therefore the driver with the lowest total reaction time + elapsed time). Drag races take place on both standard drag track straight-aways and on city street mimics. A total of four cars race on city street mimics and two cars on drag straight-aways. The winner moves on to the next round.
