How to Start a Sprint Car

In this clip were going to talk about the on and off switch and our clutch, so this is a direct drive so, if its in gear its in gear, there?s no shifting or anything, and if its out of gear its out of gear, its in gear now, just like that, and this is how you pull it out, you just pull it out of gear, so, the on and off switch , this is the off and on, and you just switch that on when your getting pushed off, and it brings your oil pressure temperature and you just switch that switch on and it just fires up. Just to put it in gear, right before you push off you use the clutch and as soon as you come of the track, you just kind of rev up the motor a little bit and pull it out of gear and you just kind of coast back here and turn it off. Hit the off switch and turn your fuel off if your in a crash.
