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
Tires on dragsters are an awesome, super simple, variable speed power transmission device which reduces the power transmission ratio from engine to ground during the few tenths of a second at start, allowing the engine to quickly spool up and then, the power massively comes on and as the tire rotation increases, the tire expands, which increases the engine to ground drive ratio right along that awesome power curve the engine, blower is producing. So nice, so simple, so effective, so powerful. These are amazing machines. There is much more going on in addition to what I talked about. It’s cool, check it out.
I’m kind of interested in the physics aspect of this. For instance, is this car shape proven to be the most effective or are they simply bound by rules here? If I had to guess I’d think something lower, wider and AWD would be ideal? Like something almost disc shaped?
I believe Ricky from trailer park boys would say those are "new Earthy tires"
Physics.
No shit Whalen you got 2k to 10k hp
I fart
Before the top fuel dragster tyres were not sticked to the rims and that lead to the tires to roll around the rims which was slowimg them and now they are sticked on the rims and thats why they wrinckles due to the high acceleration
Yes, we know this. There have been videos like this on the internet for ages. This is nothing new.
My cousin does top fuel racing best thing Iโve been too
I went to drag racing once in suriname
This tire even had more wrinkles than a pug.
They also have wrinkle walls
no shit sherlock. the word "drag" means power. they are powerful but i dont think that i should tell you why you shouldnt use it for races
WTF

Top fuel
So hill climb racing was right
BAD ASS โฆโฆ.as โฆโฆ BAD ASS GETS !
Doctor obviouse at it again ๐๐๐
SLICKS!!!!!!! ๐๐พ๐ณ๐๐ณ
Couple yrs ago I had seen video, where the tire shreds of wrinkling
Muy dura la romperรญa por el empuje hacia abajo โฌ๏ธ
I swear to god i anyone says โcentrifugal force doesnโt existโ๏ธ๐คโ stfu
PhhhhCHeeeewwwww, gone.
Thanks for the info. But i dont need them for my motorcycle.
And an AWD Tesla will STILL gap it!
๐บ๐ฒ๐ช๐ผBABY!!! NO RICER’S HERE!!
While listening to this I could smell nitromethane for some strange reason
They have two tires, one inside the other, the inner tyres run at around 20psi and the outer tire seen here runs at about 5psi. This done to prevent tire shake which has killed a lot of drag racers
Wrinkle walls. Made to do this.
troll face
Watching this shit since the 80s that wrinkle is the bead lock on the rim doing its job stopping the tire from spinning on the rimsโฆ expansion is from heat and forceโฆ.
This happens to rc cars too
Top fuel dragster burnout in the endโ ๏ธ
Still cant win against an f1 car in the race monaco ๐
Yes I did
One of the fastest accelerating machines in the world? Correction, THE fastest accelerating machines in the world.
Thanks, ai but already know this.
I would never goto a drag race event, it looks soo boring. Their not actually racing, their just going down the street in modded cars. Big deal

OMG…SUPER COOL ๐ ๐ ๐
If you ever go to a top fuel race and see a dragster here’s a warning:get your earplugs on.
tyres certainly take it in the face
V12 v10 v8 or v6 f1 cars?
All i see is engineers work, i feel it, i see it, i hear it. So beautiful.
No shit
That’s why they got beadlock wheels.
Thicc tires
