It's a dragster, not a drift car!
 
Pure Genius.

I've got to give it to him though, he almost had it. :D:eek:

Too much grip.

Having played around with dragster dimensioned cars via modding for sims I'm not surprised by that result.

Next he needs to try the Nurburgring.

He should start with a slalom, skidpad or maybe a couple of autocrosses.

And wearing only a tee-shirt...What could go wrong? Oh yeah, the car tipped over.

Frankly, he was pretty lucky. It could have been worse.

seems a lot of hold my beer is going on
having a dragster with the crazy acceleration in a small arena with people around it to me seems VERY risky.. not wearing any fireproof overall just adds to that..

First things out? People’s phones to video….

Norm K 08-11-2021 04:48 AM

Well, it hooked up nicely.

He needs a lot less traction, and a lot shorter wheelbase, and some brains.

David 08-11-2021 05:32 AM

That's about the same wheelbase as a modern F1 car so that should have worked.

Backing that thing up must be quite the challenge.

Zeke 08-11-2021 12:37 PM
