Drag racing, a contest between two cars starting from a perfect stop over a distance of a 1/4 mile (1320 feet) depends heavily on first 60 feet of the race, or the launch. The technique used for launching varies greatly depending on the how the car is equipped. The type of transmission, which wheels are being driven, tires, power, suspension and track making ready all play key roles in how to go about getting the best start possible from the car.
Improvements on the time it takes for the car to travel the first 60 feet down the track have requisite implications on the final Et (estimated time). As a normal rule, improvements in the 60 foot time, are magnified by 2x on your final Et. For example, a Dodge Viper Gts that runs a 12.2 @ 120 Mph in the 1/4 mile with a 60 foot time of 2.0 can make requisite improvements to it's 1/4 mile times by obtaining a good launch. If the Dodge Viper Gts is able cut .2 (two tenths) of a second off it it's 60 foot time, by outside the first 60 feet in 1.8 seconds, it's final Et for the 1/4 mile would be nearby 11.8 @ 119 - 121Mph. More examples can be found by searching straight through the thousands of 60 foot records in the http://www.dragtimes.com drag racing database.
Automatic Motorcycles
The best possible start is obtained by obtaining the optimal balance of applying the most estimate of power to the ground with the least estimate of wheel spin. If too much power is applied while the start and the tires spin, the resulting 60 foot time will be poor. The same goes for not applying enough power, thereby causing the car's motor to bog, and having the car limp off the line slowly.

Fast, Automatic 12-Volt Battery Charging
By combining conventional battery charging technology with state-of-the-art circuitry, the Schumacher SSC-1000A Ship 'N' Shore SpeedCharge Charger offers greater versatility, speed of charging and convenience than ever before seen in a battery charger. The charger features an easy-to-use and monitor digital readout on which three output current rates are selectable: 2-amps, 6-amps and 10-amps. The readout also allows for the selection of battery type being charged: standard, AGM or gell cell; and provides data on based on quarter percentages of a full charge that is stored and voltage present at the poles of a charging battery. All these features and data are hightened by the prescence of a powerful microprocessor at the heart of the unit.
The microprocessor of the Schumacher SSC-1000A Ship 'N' Shore SpeedCharge Charger monitors the attached battery's voltage level from the moment it is connected, using this ever-changing data to improve the charging system's multi-stage charging cycle. Multi-stage charging allows a battery charger to automatically cycle, between a variety of charging phases including desulphation, bulk charging, absorbtion, monitoring, float mode and a minimal drip charge maintain mode when a connected battery again falls below a certain set level. The microprocessor collected data is especially important in this cycle in that with it the SSC-1000A can more accurately measure the charging needs of a connected battery, resulting in quicker charge times and a lessened chance of damage due to overcharging.
2-Amp, 6-Amp and 10-Amp Charging Rates
An additional key to the speed with which the Schumacher SSC-1000A Ship 'N' Shore SpeedCharge Charger works is its three available charging rates: 2-amp, 6-amp and 10-amp. By allowing users to choose the best rate for the right battery type and charging needed, the SSC-1000A is able to better supply exactly the right level of charge, at the right time in the charging cycle to get quick results and maintain connected batteries at their proper levels. Details on the three available charging rates include:
- 10-amp Fast Charge– Charger monitors battery condition and adjusts charge rate to prevent battery damage; for car, truck, marine, RV, farm equipment, AGM, gel cell and deep-cycle batteries.
- 6-amp Medium Charge– A self-adjusting charge rate for everyday charging needs and keeping your battery in peak condition.
- 2-amp Slow Charge– A gentle trickle charge for charging and maintaining small batteries; charges motorcycle, ATV, snowmobile and lawn tractor batteries.

When launching a car with an automatic transmission, a technique called power braking is used. After properly staging the car at the drag strip's staging lane, tightly hold down the brake with one foot, while slowly applying the accelerator peddle with the other foot. The car's motor Rpm (revolutions per minute) should slowly increase to a point where the car will whether start to move or start spinning the tires. Hold down both the brake and accelerator peddles just below the point where the car is starting to move or spinning the tires. When the christmas tree lights reach the last amber light before the green, lift off of the brake and slowly push the gas peddle all the way down. The accurate Rpm to start at will be separate every car depending on all of the variables mentioned earlier. Start conservative with the first start and keep expanding the Rpm at which the car is launched at while the subsequent runs. If the car starts spinning the tires after the launch, lower the start Rpm and try again.
When launching a car with a by hand transmission come to a perfect stop after the car is properly staged. Press the clutch in all the way with one foot while pressing the accelerator peddle down with the other foot, raising the motor Rpm to a constant moderate level for the first launch. Lift up on the clutch peddle to the point where the car is just about to start sharp and hold both peddles still. When the christmas tree lights reach the last amber before the green, slowly release the clutch while speedily applying the accelerator peddle enough to start the car quickly, but not too much to induce a large estimate of wheel spin. Start conservative with the first start and keep expanding the Rpm at which the car is launched at while the subsequent runs. If the car starts spinning the tires too much after the launch, lower the start Rpm and try again.
To derive good launches and bring down 60 foot times even more, the use of drag radial or full slick tires can be used on more mighty cars that have issue launching at any Rpm on quarterly street tires. Drag radials and full slicks commonly want a burnout to heat up the tires and clean them from debris for optimum performance. A burnout is a rapid spinning of the car's tires while the car stays relatively still.
All wheel drive cars (Awd) are typically the easiest to start because the engine's power is distributed to 4 wheels instead of two. Rear wheel drive (Rwd) cars typically start good than front wheel drive (Fwd) due to the change of weight to the rear tires while the launch, causing an increase in traction. If the car has aftermarket adjustable suspension, adjustments can be made definite for drag racing to increase the weight change to the driving wheels.
The track's start pad making ready also plays an foremost role in how well and how hard cars can launch. The start area is commonly prepped with traction compounds to add to the stickiness of the track. A well prepped track will certainly help drop 60 foot times and corollary in lower 1/4 mile times.
During the breaks and cool down periods between drag racing runs, make detailed notes about how you launched on the back of each timeslip. These notes can help you diagnose launching issues, fine-tune subsequent launches and show improvements in the hunt for The excellent Launch.

U might not be able to hear us that well in the beginning because of a couple things: 1. My mic was a bit far away from my mouth. 2. Automatic weapons being shot + Explosions + Music + Honking Horns + Cars + Motorcycles + Majini yelling out a bunch of gibberish that most of u probably don't understand + Commentary = Fail Hope you enjoy!
