This is for 1/4 mile drag. Very interesting suggestion I got a while ago to make this car into a drag beast. It is FF and I personally don’t like FF cars for drag because it’s hard to find rooms to race them in. It’s usually Honda only with no Nos. I made this one with or without Nos and haven’t been kicked from a Honda room when using it yet. It’s not the quickest, but it is the most unique. I have never seen anyone use this car ever. It looks very interesting too. Once all setup the car appears very sleek and smooth. For dragging without Nos start in gear 1 and shift a bit before the redline for all the gears. For using Nos start in gear 3 with nos and gas slammed shifting up at 100mph and about the redline for the rest.
