Allen Johnson's Mopar Dodge Avenger Pro Stock. Pro stock is a class of drag racing featuring "factory hot rods".The class is often described as "all motor", due to the cars not using any form of forced induction such as turbocharging or supercharging, or other enhancements, like nitrous oxide, along with regulations governing the modifications allowed to the engines and the types of bodies used.
Two Top Fuel dragsters side by side during an NHRA event in 2012. Top Fuel is a type of drag racing whose dragsters are the quickest accelerating racing cars in the world and the fastest sanctioned category of drag racing, with the fastest competitors reaching speeds of 338.94 miles per hour (545.5 km/h) and finishing the 1,000 foot (304.8 m) runs in 3.641 seconds.

Pro FWD is a class in drag racing. The E.T. Bracket categories are no-electronics classes. The E.T. Bracket categories are no-electronics classes. Delay devices , throttle stops , air shifters , transbrakes , etc. or any device that transmits real-time, on-track data to the driver or any remote location are prohibited.
Consider fluid flow around an airfoil. The flow of the fluid around the airfoil gives rise to lift and drag forces. By definition, lift is the force that acts on the airfoil normal to the apparent fluid flow speed seen by the airfoil. Drag is the forces that acts tangential to the apparent fluid flow speed seen by the airfoil.
Super Comp (or Quick Rod) is the fastest of the heads-up Super classes (8.90 index).Super Comp is composed primarily of dragsters.Engine, chassis and body modifications are virtually unlimited, though all entries must adhere to NHRA or IHRA safety standards.
The drag force depends on air density (air density in turn depends on air temperature), air velocity and the shape of the vane, see drag equation. Some VAF sensors include an additional intake air temperature sensor (IAT sensor) to allow the engines ECU to calculate the density of the air, and the fuel delivery accordingly.
Drag is a force that acts parallel to and in the same direction as the airflow. The drag coefficient of an automobile measures the way the automobile passes through the surrounding air. When automobile companies design a new vehicle they take into consideration the automobile drag coefficient in addition to the other performance characteristics ...
