I don't see how you are going to fit all this stuff in the car. Where is the EP going to go? if it goes on top of the motor, can a 9 volt still fit? I think that would be too risky heat wise. The body sits high enough that you could put the EP in the front under the hood maybe, and just run the wires back to the motor and what not. I think the front end needs to be lowered though....it just doesn't look right that high.

There will be no EP Board. There will be a small small time switch where the motor just runs off a 9 volt for 10-20 seconds. Plus we're not using any fancy motors, we are just going to burn up a stage 2 or something.

I think it sits fine, gives it a drag car look. I'll add a side shot now, check the photoshoot post.

Super charger, would just increase speed. It needs torque...I mean like wheelie of the line torque. For that though you gotta have bigger back tires that can hook. I got me a nice pair for when I make my drag car.

Its looking good, I want to see that time switch thing.
