Drag racing is a competition in which vehicles compete to be the first to cross a set finish line usually from a standing start and in a straight line. First gaining popularity in the USA after World War II the sport steadily grew in popularity and spread across the globe. By 2009 there were hundreds of dragstrips in operation mainly in developed countries .Most drag races begin with a standing stationary start and are just 1/4 mile long 1320 ft 400 m. Races last between 3.9 and 17 seconds with finishing speeds ranging from 80 to over 330 mph 530 km/h depending upon the type of vehicle being used. The faster vehicles then need a parachute to slow down an innovation credited indirectly to cartoonist.

Professional Drag Races
Before each drag race (also known as a pass) each driver is allowed to perform a burnout. Each driver then lines up at the starting line. Informal drag races can be started by any means including flag-waving and arm-dropping. These methods are more likely to be seen in an un-professional setting being most popular with illegal street racing. Professional drag races are started electronically with a series of vertically-arranged lights known as a "Christmas tree" or just "tree".
