I wonder what it was rated to. I know that Mazdatrix just sold thier dragster and Atkins Rotarys is for sale as well. Looks like it was well built and I am sure his reserve was way lower than what it would cost to build. Just have to be careful of rules changes that can make a car illegal to run

i'm too poor to purchase it now, going to grad school in the fall. Oh well, I like corners too much to spend money on a drag car right now. maybe in the future it'd be something fun to mess around with.

With that you would live your live 10 seconds at a time.....

Actually if you are any good you could probably get it into the high 8s easy enough. It is alot of fun and truth be told I don't have time to get scared, usually my adrenalin is running so hard during the burn out and staging that I have to a quick calm or I will red light. Just take a big deep breath right before breaking the first light and then slide her in. Once the light comes on I don't think I breathe until I hit the chute. It is very addictive and expensive, that is why I don't currently have a RUNNING dedicated drag car.
