Starting out in drag racing..

05-01-15 17:21:53

Hello! Out there to all drag racers and a happy new year!

I Am about to make a start in drag racing and want know what are the first steps I need to take. I am not new to motorsport have done hill climbs and off road stuff and what not. And now want make a start in drag racing. I have got a car I can start in so that is one step! But if there is anything else I need to know will be a big help!

Cheers Matt

Do you know how quick the car is at all?
As above, get in contact with ANDRA on the phone or email first, they will be a wealth of information for you to get started.
Also what is your nearest track?

There is a good book called How to drag race, check ebay about $40.00. Well worth it, as above contact ANDRA and go to closest track and talk to others with a similar car, good luck. Glen

Hey Matty is your car street registered if so go to street meets and learn the basics, and if possible find someone at the track to help out or  crew for on race weekends if you were in Sydney we the ss/a guys could help good luck.

If you have access to face book, go on to the racing onn page and have a look on their, the commentator (Michael Agius) does a pretty good tutorial on lights, staging etc etc.

Good luck and have fun.
