MOC 1960’s Dragster

[Drag Brick]

BAD A$$ front engine Drag Brick dragster called “STINGER”! This dragster pulls a wheelie off the line and shoots down the drag strip super fast! Running a 6x5x3 spring powered LEGO motor, it’s hard to tame it at the start gate! Just got done filming it on the drag strip. I’ll be sure to post that video here as soon as it’s ready.

With the driver sat behind the rear wheels and lack of rear spoiler it's certainly unconventional! Definite wacky racer vibes coming from this.

I googled some pictures, and it really looks like proper dragster from those years.

They are known as "feds" front engine dragster. Still a highly popular class around the world.

You're right, it looks exactly like that

My favorite class. They sound and look awesome! I wasn’t born yet, but the 60’s looked to be good times along with good music and cool cars.

Yeah, looks good man, this is the dragster from my childhood, really cool. I think we called them "Rails" back then. 60s/70s.

Check out the “brick flicks and comics” section here on eurobricks. I have a video of my first edition drag rails racing. They have the older style pullback motors, but they are pretty fast and pull good wheelies!
