Biondo Racing Momentary Push Button Switch

Biondo Racing Momentary Push Button Switches: Built by Racers, Proven on the Strip

When a drag race is decided by thousandths of a second, the switch under your thumb is not a detail — it is a critical piece of equipment. Biondo Racing Products has spent decades engineering momentary push button switches specifically for the demands of bracket racing, Super Stock, Comp Eliminator, and everything in between. These are not off-the-shelf electrical components dressed up with a racing logo; they are purpose-built tools that reflect a company whose entire philosophy is "Products for Racers by Racers."

A Heritage Rooted in Real Competition

Biondo Racing traces its roots to Sam Biondo, who began his drag racing career in 1958. After years of competing at the highest levels, Sam started developing products to sharpen his own skills — and in 1987, he officially opened Sam Biondo Racing Products, a family-owned company dedicated to giving racers a genuine competitive edge. That same hands-on, track-tested approach carries directly into every momentary switch the brand produces.

What Sets Biondo's Momentary Push Button Switches Apart

The engineering priorities behind Biondo's momentary push button switches are speed, consistency, and ergonomics — three qualities that matter enormously when a transbrake or line-lock activation must be perfectly repeatable run after run.

• Ultra-Quick Release: The flagship MUSH series features a high-amperage microswitch engineered for an ultraquick, consistent release — reducing variation in reaction time across every single pass.
• Mushroom-Style Button Top: The oversized mushroom-profile top is designed to seat naturally under a gloved thumb, so the driver can focus entirely on the tree rather than finding the button.
• Adjustable Travel Bracket: An included adjustable travel bracket makes steering wheel mounting straightforward, accommodating both door cars and dragsters.
• TBB Ultra-Quick Transbrake Button: The TBB series is rated at 20 amps at 12V with screw-in terminals, making it a robust choice for direct transbrake solenoid activation where a clean, high-current connection is essential.
• Double-O ("Double O") Adjustable Button: Designed specifically for bracket racers, this model features an anodized black rim and an oversized concave red top close to 1" in diameter, fitting cleanly into a standard 1/2" steering wheel hole. It is adjustable to suit racers of different styles and is Super Stock and Comp Eliminator legal.
• Spiraled & Stretch Cord Compatibility: Many Biondo momentary switches include or are compatible with spiraled cords and heavy-duty stretch cords, keeping the wiring managed and giving the driver freedom of movement without pulling at the connection.
• Broad Amperage Range: The lineup spans from 5-amp low-current buttons up to 20-amp high-current units, ensuring the right switch is available regardless of the solenoid or circuit being controlled.

Why Consistency Is the Whole Game

In bracket racing, the driver's reaction time is as important as the car's mechanical performance. A switch that is sluggish, spongy, or inconsistent introduces variation that no tune-up can fix. Biondo designs its momentary buttons so that actuation feel and release characteristics are repeatable across hundreds of runs — letting the racer develop true muscle memory rather than compensating for unpredictable hardware. That is the core reason why Biondo momentary switches are a staple in the staging lanes at tracks across the country.
