Dune Runner Dragster

[cboogie1]

Guys tell me what you think of this idea.A dunerunner with SUH 1/4 scale rears slicks,gear it up and 27.2 ONB for torque and high revs..I think it would be an relatively easy build and it might be a fun class to run.The dunerunner already has that dragster look, and we could see if Sprint77 could fab up a wheelie bar and a dragster type exhaust.Sprint77 I would definitely like your input because of your 1/4 racing experience.Tell me what you think or am I just crazy and have too much time on my hands?

Wheelie bars would be cool

I run the SUH 1/4 scale slicks all the way around on my TT just for fun on pavement. They work well with 35-25-25-25 gear setup but they may be a lil bit short for dragin. Its worth a try tho...

Just a thought you may be able to get someone to put a extra rubber cap on the rears for the extra height. My dad runs 1/4 scales and there is a guy that recaps for him sometimes not sure if they could put an extra one on tho I will ask him to see if they can.

I just called he said there are a few different sizes they sell so they may have something that will work.

Depends on what you want to spend. CC racing/Dark Soul have a beast for about a grand. There is a 62cc for around the same price. The CC racing engine was designed for drag racing.
