Watch on YouTube

What happens here

After all preparations are complete and as evening approaches, it's time for the drag race. The driver puts on his racing helmet (Simpson brand) and K1 racing suit. He maneuvers the Escalade to the starting line, performs a burnout to heat the Hoosier racing slicks for maximum traction, and then stages the vehicle. Once the lights drop, he launches the Escalade down the quarter-mile track. The pass results in an impressive elapsed time of 9.94 seconds at 137 mph.

Goal: Complete a successful drag race run.

Tools and materials

  • Cadillac Escalade — The vehicle used for the drag race
  • Racing Helmet Simpson — Head protection during racing
  • Racing Slicks Hoosier — Optimizing traction for drag racing
  • Racing Suit K1 — Fire and abrasion protection
