Default my dads traxxas nitro funny car







the engine is an os fs26s-c 4 stroke (this is a real one, unline the engines in my twin nitro xo-1 that are converted airplane engines), transfers power through an hpi clutchbell, the transmission is the 2 speed from a traxxas revo, and out back is a vanquish ax10 axle that has been narrowed, using axial hardened ring and pinion, a vanquish locker and traxxas funny car axles. everything has been hand built, with the exception of the transmission mounts custom machined by razor customs (aka me).

Finally have some updates to this build.I got to shake it down several weeks ago and get some break in done.Its faster than I thought to start even though I have not run it that hard yet,The last post was where's the supercharger??Well its on now and it is even more stupid crazy fast .If anyone thinks these super chargers don't really work(my self included)I can now say holy !@#$% I am impressed.I think the reason it works is its on a 4 stroke.The thoughts were on a 2 stroke it just blew the mixture right through the engine.Well enough of the blah blah,enjoy the pictures of the finished (but still more mods being done as we speak)build.Thanks for looking.
