With a 22t gear that thing outta come out of the hole like a banshee! . . . I was thinking the same thing. Only hope of winning against a car like that is that it max out about two feet or less down the track. |

That's what I'm hoping for, but knowing Robert, he's considered that. I know he's running a pretty tall tire that will offset that a little.

I love working up custom parts. The modified 4Gear plate is so much better than a factory gear plate it's funny. Now with the Bear Creek Race coming up it is time to start thinking about more improvements for the 4Gear ;D That is good news for the racers that do not race the Front Engine Dragsters. Why? because the ideas that these racers share helps you. So ask lots of questions. Just don't ask for classified information or men in black suits might show up at your door ;D  |

There are going to be some racers that are way faster than they were last time in the Nostalgia Top Fuel Dragster race.

Got my silicone in time. Poured the first mold of a new FED dragster body. I already had this body for Super G+. So I just did some heavy modifications to body lines and stance to get it to fit 4Gear. Started working on the chassis set up for this dragster. Lots of new innovations on this car. Pics of body later for sure, info on drive train of chassis mmmm..........MAYBE.

The wind will be.....not gonna tell ya The wheels on the front are saw blade style and the rear wheels will match. This is my experiment. I hope I can have it all done for the race.
