Before I had kids, several buddies and I bought/built our own Alcohol Briggs Raptor stock carts. I had a track in my back field that we would drag with my tractor pulling a harrow/drag, and then water it down with my field sprayer. We would generally hit about 35 mph and race wheel to wheel going almost flat out all the way around my tri-oval track. The real fun came after dark when we started up the portable generator/ light stand, and the track (sans sun) became super sticky.

Our motors were fairly mild Briggs Raptor 5 HP with a good clutch, advanced timing, header, and a bored out alcohol carb, that turned about 5500 RPM......cheap fun.
