@@davidsilaghi744Sorry, but you're mistaken here 😊. Please do a quick Google search! Centrifugal force acts outward from the center, while centripetal force acts inward toward the center.

@@CJ-hv6fe He is indeed, fr. And they have to rebuild the top end and clutch after each run, and if not, more of it. It's much more than people think it is behind 1/4 mile.
As the tires shrink during the launch, it effectively works like reducing the gear ratio by about 20%. As these cars gain speed, centrifugal force causes the tires to increase in size, thereby increasing the gear ratio for better top-end performance at high speed. This means that most top fuel dragsters use a single drive gear and don't require gearboxes.
In the 1970s, the tyres were not underinflated. The rear wing was also very low. Thus, at the Christmas tree green light they back bounce all over the place and the cars took off much slower. After under inflating the tyres and making the higher fleet air wing, things got a lot faster.
Incorrect sorry we run very low tire pressure because it allows us more traction on the track especially at launch. The more rubber on the track the more traction. If the tire was Inflated all the way, it would never stick to the track and when you launch, the tires would only spin and you would go nowhere. I am not Mr. Scienece however I am a professional drag Racer. I speak from hands on experience
@MikeConner.akaRadio You're not a drag racer. Because then you would know that 50 years ago it wasn't something that was practiced until someone got the smart idea of producing the soft tyre. So now, not only are you a liar, you're stupid.
Nothing can prepare you for the first time you witness a top fuel launch. It's the most radical combo of Shockwaves and decibels that you can witness shy of being under a space shuttle launching.
Side note: the change in diameter also serves as the dragsters "transmission" since the engine is directly connected to the wheels, the car only has one speed*. However, as the tire diameter shrinks, the final drive changes for better acceleration. As the diameter expands, it increases the car's top speed. Edit: *I am referring to the NHRA Top Fuel class, slower classes do indeed use regular transmissions.
@@maxhagenauer24 I'm pretty sure there aren't. Just look at how fast those things fly down the strip. There is simply not the time to shift. Slower classes do have actual transmissions, just not the top fuelers
@@supercharger426 You are probably right, it would be very messy amd compilcated and to much stress on each little part and probably all kinds of things would go wrong.

They're not just Dragsters they're a different types of Dragsters the one you are talking about is a Top Fuel dragster or any type that needs that big of a slick
If you haven't been to one of those top fuel Drag races its like anything you've ever felt. The power those things put out you can feel it in your heart.
And when rock crawlers, some of the slowest accelerating vehicles in the world, go up on some rocks, the sheer grip and weight from the car or wheels csn cause the tires to wrinkle. They use special tires that give them lots of grip on steep surfaces, and have very low air pressure to provide more surface area on any terrain. Also the fancy shmancy rims both these kinds of cars use are called beadlocks. If you look at the rim you can see the bolts. They aren't there for looks, they are there to hold a plate on the inside of the tire that keeps it from falling off the rim at such low pressure.
It’s not so much the weight and grip but purely just low tire pressure that causes the wrinkle. It’s not special tires or anything used either since you can buy them just the same as regular tires. Beadlocks are technically how you describe but the plate is actually on the outside and pulled in with the annoying amount of bolts used. But the thought that just grip and weight cause the wrinkle is false. I can air down a 392 with 39” tires of Raceline Beadlocks and I won’t see any wrinkle. It’ll look more like a normal flat tire on flat ground but it conforms to the shape of whatever you’re going over to increase the contact patch of the tire

Three is one exception. The tyres rarely tare themselves up under a lot of force. CVTs fail with enormous frequency. They are so bad that our shop keeps them in stock, especially Nissan and GM. They are so bad that I get a lot of practice replacing them. I cut my time in half from my first week getting cars in for bad CVTs. Toyota makes a different type of CVT thag is as durable as a manual transmission. They are in the Prius. That is why Prius' are used for taxis, fleet cars, rentals, and company cars.
You sir have the correct answer. The tires do two things, 1. They absorb the sudden shock and torque of the drivetrain. 2. They wind up giving the Dragster/Funnuy Car an effectively lower gear ratio, increasing the power to overcome the inertia of the car. Then as the inertia is overcome and the car accelerates, the centripetal force of the spinning tire. Makes the circumference of the tire larger, effectively giving the car a higher gear ratio, and better top end speed.

I recommend seeing these in person, and monster trucks. You can feel it in your chest. Hundreds of feet away. Rocket powered vehicles are just as cool if not cooler and you can feel the heat
Another fun fact about Drag racing tires is; they are held on by special wheels called Beadlock which actually bolts the rubber tire securely to the metal wheel. This helps greatly reduce wheel spin on launch as well as helps keep the wheel from shredding due to the extensive heat and stress from centrifugal force.
You don’t actually run bolts through the tire with Beadlocks. That would ruin the tire and cause so many fail points that would end with a thrashed tire. A Beadlock wheel actually has a plate that is pressed against the bead of tire that gets sucked down once all bolts are torqued correctly.
crazy thing is 10000 isnt even accurate and is an old estimate since these cars cant be ran on a dyno. Truth is no one knows how much hp or torqe these make, but 10k was awhile ago ive heard they make close to 12,500hp now.
@@brionthomsen7479if your tire is secured to the wheel by screws you’ll destroy that tire. It’s a plate that’s pulled against the bead and the inner wheel by bolts but they don’t actually go through the tire at all
These things are so loud and powerful you can almost feel existence ripple standing next to them when they launch, and they let the spectators stand a few tens of feet to the side behind the half walls
It’s called balloon tires. It happens when a car with really soft and low pressure goes over 75 rpm and because of contrifical force the tires expand and grow. It can damage the tires, but I don’t think you will have to worry about that .
You're not wrong, things do expand with heat, but you really need to pay attention in physics, as boring as it seems, knowing physics helps in literally every single aspect of your life.
They are not some of the fastest? 😅😅😅😅 They in fact, are the world's fastest Foot by foot, they are faster than the space shuttle being launched into space. Irs been proven and fact that the Nitro Methane dragster and funny Cars are the most powerful and fastest vehicles on this planet Google Dat shit if you don't believe me.
Ummm, but there not for whatever reason as in positive or negative gravity. Space shuttle may be faster if the dragster ran out of fuel. Kinda same thing as your comment lol
hydrogen jet cars run faster 1/4miles, dont believe me google it. Top fuel dragsters are slower in the 1000’ than hydrogen jet cars in the 1/4. Theyve run 380mph the record would be 400mph if a sister pass was ever ran.
I used to think Nascar was stupid and boring. Just going 200+ in circles. Then I got to admiring it bc of everything it takes to able to handle driving that fast and being aware of the endless possibilities of another earnhardt crash. Speed is the most exhilarating andrenaline rush for me, but going that fast, feeling comfortable and knowing what your car can do, and being able to control everything is key. But If you're saying it's stupid bc it's extremely dangerous, THEN I would agree with you.
Air pressure increases with heat, check it yourself on your own car. Check the pressure in the morning then in the afternoon when it’s hot, or after you drive the car.
The reason why tires wrinkle is that the gel that they put on the track is sticky and As the car rapidly accelerates the gel grips onto the wheel, which is the reason why it wrinkles.
The tire wrinkling is engineered into the performance of the tire to allow it to cushion the ‘shock’ of the acceleration! Otherwise the tires would simply blaze and we’ve all seen that!
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
To give you a sense of how insane Top Fuel Dragsters are. Their engines and launches can (kind of) produce a 2.0 magnitude earthquake at close quarters!

Speed is the most exhilarating andrenaline rush for me, but going that fast, feeling comfortable and knowing what your car can do, and being able to control everything is key. But If you're saying it's stupid bc it's extremely dangerous, THEN I would agree with you.
It’s ok we all know you have a sad life after hearing your opinion
So Hill Climb Racing wasnt lying about the tire wrinkle
Not even fast compared to the almighty Supra 🍷🗿
Kid there's a lot of cars faster than Supra
a dog is faster than a supra and yo "sigma ohio gyatt rizz grimace shake" lookin ahh
@@princechristdenabrenica Supras are faster than F-35s lol
@@DaCarReviewer138 you fr??
@@DaCarReviewer138 Ok kid
Air pressure increases with heat, check it yourself on your own car. Check the pressure in the morning then in the afternoon when it’s hot, or after you drive the car.
That's why it's call a dragster because the wheels drag on the road that why are wrinkles
Lol no.
Bro the wheels dont drag lmao
The wheels power it
Like a normal car
It doesnt have a jet/rocket engine bruh
@@Willie-wf7vjehh in a way these cars spin all the way down the track. They never truly lock up, not enough space for the wheels to completely grip.
Being a rallye fan since forever, i am always amazed how people find drag racing exciting. It's so undercomplex.
You don't understand it so you should stay on your own ideal like shut up 😊
Waste of resources........duh!
So is everything u don't need to survive yet want. Goo goo gaa gaa mf
What you enjoy for entertainment is a waste of resources also Eddie.
By that logic, stop watching and commenting. It's a waste of time that could be used doing something productive........duh!
Sure, it's also fun.
Life is short, we can waste resources to enjoy it
Centrifugal force ❌️
Inertia ✅️
Tesla can easily beat this petrol car
Send me a clip of a tesla beating a dragster lol
Dumbest comment of the day
Top fuel...no way Greta

We think that you pulled this " fact " from....
...uranus.
Bro went old instantly
For someone who has been around drag racing their whole life I recommend it to everyone
That's centripetal force. Centrifugal force is what the air in the tires feels pressed against the tread
Engineer: How much torque do you need?
Driver: Yeeess!
The person behind the dragster that forgot his or her ear plugs:💀
The expansion of the tire is calculated it's part of the gearing.
If im not wrong, the track is also sticky. They place a type of adhisive that helps with grip and prevents tire spin.
The reason why tires wrinkle is that the gel that they put on the track is sticky and As the car rapidly accelerates the gel grips onto the wheel, which is the reason why it wrinkles.
The track is covered in modified tar and glue which grabs their tires. It's not just because of the air pressure.
It's both....
The way he said centrifugal is jokes
The tire wrinkling is engineered into the performance of the tire to allow it to cushion the ‘shock’ of the acceleration! Otherwise the tires would simply blaze and we’ve all seen that!
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
Looks like my Dodge Challenger at a red light
To give you a sense of how insane Top Fuel Dragsters are. Their engines and launches can (kind of) produce a 2.0 magnitude earthquake at close quarters!
They use the split lock wheels because the wheel will actually spin inside the tire when they launch.
supra kids be like: SuPrA fAsTeR
