As everybody knows, Drag Racing is expensive; and impossible without Sponsors. If you are interested in supporting our Racing Team, feel free to contact us by the e-mail adress below or just call us to set something up.We will be proud to display your Company's Name and Products all over Europe's Race Track's.
Cars in the Super Gas Class cover the 1/4 mile in around 9.90 seconds with Terminal speeds of around 150 m.p.h.
Spectators attention is concentrated on the 2 cars which dominate the track at one time,rather than being spread over a large number of cars over a large area as it is with most other forms of Motor Sport. Their attention focussed directly upon the roaring machine that waits with throttle open and the engine extruding raw energy for the lights to go green and unleash the 700+ horsepower housed beneath the bonnet.
Sponsorship phasing is negotiable, and can be on an annual basis or alternatively on a Round by Round agreement. In addition the car could be present at a number of car exhibititons, demonstration or promotional venues. In fact the cars the star and could be used wherever you as a sponsor feel it appropriate for your market growth and PUBLIC PROFILE
A Drag Race is an acceleration contest between two vehicles over a distance of normally a quarter mile, or in some instances, an eighth mile. Both vehicles compete from a standing start and the contest is run in tournament style eliminations, the loser being eliminated and the winner progressing till there is one driver left.
The race is started by means of a Christmas Tree, a traffic light system in the centre of the track just off start-line. The racing machine's front wheels are moved into light beams across the start-line that detect the vehicle, these coupled with the finish line sensors activate individual time and speed clocks. The lights on the Christmas Tree count down, amber then four tenths of a second later, green. A Sportsman Tree has amber's that flash at five tenths of second, as opposed to the Pro- Tree at four. The race is then on, first to the finish line is the winner unless a red light shows in that lane, meaning the vehicle left before the green and is automatically disqualified. Other infringements are, crossing the centre line or hitting the guard wall. In certain classes they run on an index, a set time (i.e. Super Gas on 9.90 seconds!) and if they go quicker than that, again they will be disqualified.
Theoretically they should cross the finish-line together but it generally goes to the person who has the best reaction time away from the Christmas Tree, a 0.4 second r.t. is perfect. Check out the finish-line score- boards for all that information, then time and speed appears and the winning lane is highlighted.
There are many classes of race machine and eligibility is based on various requirements and specification. These include vehicle type, engine size, fuel, vehicle weight and allowed modifications.
Take a walk into the pits and among the race machinery, our crew and driver are quite happy to talk, but please give us some space if we are busy thrashing to make the next round. See you at the strip!
