EZ Start Raceway

• Race system provides start and finish gates for launching and racing carbon-dioxide (CO2) dragsters for students in grades 6-12 studying the scientific concepts of aerodynamics, motion, drag, and friction.
• Includes EZ Start Gate, EZ Finish Gate, line anchors, detectors, and a power adapter for launching dragsters and race times.
• Finish gate detects dragsters and indicates the winner with a blinking light.
• Start and finish gates are constructed of high-density polyethylene (HDPE) for durability and longevity of use.
• Gates can be set up on the floor or on the FasTrak Elevated Racetrack (sold separately).

The Pitsco 33135 EZ Start Raceway provides start and finish gates for launching and racing carbon-dioxide (CO2) dragsters for students in grades 6-12 studying the scientific concepts of aerodynamics, motion, drag, and friction. This package includes the EZ Start Gate, the EZ Finish Gate, line anchors, monofilament line, detectors, and a power adapter for easily launching dragsters and race times. The finish gate detects dragsters as they pass through the gate and indicates the winner with a blinking light. Both the start and finish gates are constructed of high-density polyethylene (HDPE) for durability and longevity of use. The EZ Start Raceway can be set up on the floor or on the Pitsco 37989 FasTrak Elevated Racetrack (sold separately). A race system is typically used in an educational setting to record race times of CO2 and other model racing vehicles. Floor racing requires duct tape and deceleration towels (sold separately). Science education products incorporate applied math and science principles into classroom and homeschool-based projects. Teachers in pre-K, elementary, and secondary classrooms use science education kits and products alongside science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) curriculum to demonstrate STEM concepts and real-world applications through hands-on activities. Science education projects include a broad range of activities, such as practical experiments in engineering, aeronautics, robotics, energy, chemistry, physics, biology, and geology. Pitsco Education develops K-12 science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) curriculum, educational kits, and classroom tools. The company, founded in 1971, is headquartered in Pittsburg, KS.
