Default My 69 Camaro pics

Here are some pics of my modified dragster!
I've had it for a while and haven't driven it in a looong time because the damn thing is waaaay too fast and wont hook up for ****!!

I am thinkin about selling it but not sure yet! Throw me an offer if you are intrested!

It used to be a Dragster but I cut the frame and threw on a 69 Camaro body.
You'll understand once you see the pics lol

If it were to hook up then ya lol
I havent tried sticky tires or putting it on a treated surface but the damn thing is a torque monster!! lol
I have never clocked it but when it was stock in dragster form it claimed 0-60 in under 2 seconds but I think it goes well over 60!!! lol
I have changed the gear to more of a top end gear since then so it would not have so much bottom end and a higher top speed

The motor in stock form produces 1.6 HP
All I have done to it is tuned exhaust and a gear.

my rc and your actual car, **** I dont have anything to lose lol

I am trying to calculate what it would run 1/8 mile?

132 feet in @ 2.5 seconds 1/8 mile = 660 feet

I say it is in the 7's since it will probably top out around 75 or so

ok
