Did you know that when cars are launched in a drag race, their tires get wrinkled? You see, dragsters are some of the fastest accelerating machines globally, producing up to 11,000 horsepower. To put that into perspective, it’s more than 12 F1 cars combined. They use specialized soft tires with low air pressure to maximize grip. When they are launched with that immense torque, the tires undergo some serious wrinkling, causing the diameter to shrink by 8 inches. What’s even more impressive is that as they pick up speed, their tires actually expand due to centrifugal force

Looks like me old & wrinkle ๐
My balls also wrinkle
Also the track is coated in adhesive, I do believe.
Top fuel/funny cars are an engineering marvel. 330MPH in 3-4 seconds. The next class down is pro stock and they turn 3,000 horsepower with naturally aspirated dodge hemiโs on alcohol. My wheelhouse is sprint car racing, we win the worldโs HP/power ratio at 975 HP in a 1250lb car which is inherently fucked but these guys are fucking insane. I cannot imagine for a second being behind the wheel of a 13,000 HP monster.
8" shrinkage. I have that same problem.
I donโt know why it really pissed me off that he said SOME OF, it is literally the fastest thing to accelerate on the planet

my theory is that the car is a powerful motor and if the tire air is full its will start doing burnout because of the weight of the engine and the power start
i see๐๐๐
Dragster car is hp 10k ghost car hp?
The sweetest of smells
Centripetal force. Centrifugal force is in the other direction.
AND IT'S A GREAT TIME, THE SMELL OF METHANOL, AND TIRE SMOKE NOT TA MENTION THE SPEED.
Thats is pretty bad ass
And one of the biggeet wastes of natural resources
Drag strip= hillbilly gathering
I think itยดs the reality that ripples around these monsters!
I have large amounts of money in my pocket
Great explanation! Drag racing is a fascinating sport.
Top fuel drag racers are amazing machines. They can go from a standstill to 100 miles an hour in just 0.8 seconds and reach the end of the quarter mile in less than 4 seconds
Some of the best parts of my childhood were watching dad race his top fuel and the chev. Nitro methane gas never gets easier to be around ๐

And a sticky road
thatโs cool
There the fastest
My father use to drag race. And every time we had to go to those goddamn things what amazed me the most was seeing people in the bleachers who actually paid money to see that shit. It was so boring. Itโs a few seconds race in between minutes and minutes of hold time. And the winner really isnโt determined by the race. The winner is determined by which team did the best preparation before the race, e.g., how hot/sticky they got their tires from the burnout prior, i.e., was it too hot or not enough?
Wow, folks finally discovering rubber isn't steel! Who would have thought it?
Itโs actually centripetal force
