When you’re looking for a new race car battery, due to cost, it’s often tempting to settle for a subpar option. Whilst this saves you some money, it means you’re compensating for performance in a range of different areas. Find out more about the difference a good race car battery makes below, and learn how to set your car apart from the rest of the field.
Startup
One of the first things you look for in a race car is a reliable startup. After all, you can’t put in hot laps when your car is still sitting in the garage, refusing to tick over. A brand new race car battery means that you have reliable performance in your starter motor and spark plugs. Your engine will start up on the first attempt, so you’ll be lapping the rest of the field in no time. Getting off to a good start is key, and a good battery can save you money in the long run as you don’t have to buy replacements.
Lighter weight
One of the key benefits of using a specifically designed racecar battery is weight. Race drivers and pit crews spend a long time shedding weight from their cars, making sure that their engine takes the skeletal body of the car as far as possible as fast as it can. Racecar batteries are designed with the sole intention of cutting down on weight whilst not compromising performance.
Longer lifetime
One benefit of racecar batteries is that you can use them in any compatible car. Despite its slimmed-down design, a race car battery has a longer lifespan and offers a higher level of performance than your average car battery. This not only saves you time in terms of maintenance but also money on new batteries.
