I don't know how good or bad the Megatech dragster is, but they're blowing them out at $179.99!!!! The original list was $449. Anyone with any experience chime in. http://dealer.megatech.com/itDetail.asp?it=MTC7810

Personally for that price id build my own and have the pride in saying i made it myself. It should be around that same price.

Hey Redlinez, that dragster is ok to pay around with but really not a competive if you plan on racing . Check out these websites if you are interested in RC Drag Racing......lynwoodrcdragway.com, rcdrags.com, and imdra.com. The dragster I run is powered by .21 and is capable of making passes in the low 1.5 second range at over 85mph. (132 feet)

dont know much about RC drag racing but what distance is that 1.5 time run?

On my power spreadsheet I calculate you will need 120oz/in of torque on the motor to run 1.5s The highest torque I have seen from a .28 motor is around 85oz/in which will give you 2.0 for 132 ft

More likely there is something wrong with my spreadsheet as I have seen a 1.6 second pass....lol

Oh, I'm not looking for one. I just wanted to pass on the deal for anyone thinking about it as I saw these selling for $350 plus everywhere else. Seemed like a deal to me.
