Default Miniature blown V8 dragster

Just found this on you tube and thought I would share. It has everything including a dry sump oiling system! Probably cost more than the full scale ones

Conley Minature motors are the ones I have always seen. Saw them 15 years ago at an R/C show. This doesn't look like a conley but very similar.

That one is from Conley also. Amazing work. I think most of the ones that do that kind of stuff make there own parts. Just one more thing I wish I could do.

For that price, you could have a 390 boost motor built to handle 1k rwhp!

Thats cool!! There was a guy at our street event with one, and he was ripping up the road with it, It would carry the front for as long as he wanted, and he said it would run 70mph. I know it was flying!!
