[QUOTE=josh9mille

Listen dude i work on top fuel dragsters i refuse to argue with you but let me say this,can you name somthing that goes stupid fast that doesent have a wing?The degree/angle always determinates how much force the back wheels apply along with suspention or struts i.e "hookin upp".These brushless cars never hook up you could be at 80 mph and then..tire spin they skate the street the whole way unless you're a beast with throttle control then you wont smoke the tires.by the way what you wanna do wanna line up if the race is right ill fly you down here!

So you changed oil on a dragster once and now you are a pro in aerodynamics? J/K A quick google search came up with anywhere from 3500 to 7500lb downforce on a top fuel car wing. Elephants weigh up to 25,000lbs and average about 16,000lbs. So yes I guess it could be like an elephant sitting on the wing of a dragster...a very small elephant. So now lets scale up the 80 pounds of force on the buggy wing @ 70mph, it comes to 5120lbs at a scale speed of 560mph. Pretty low compared to the dragster. The math shows its plausible. Ill admit I was wrong. And no, im not traveling accross the country to drag race an RC car, however if you want to pay to send me, my doorslammer car and my 2 man crew down there to drag race against your similar street legal car I would be all over that! And no, putting a license plate on the back of a top fuel car does not mean it is street legal!

If I were in Florida, I would take that race for fun. Might not qualify but I think my Super RS4 on 6s would get you. Not a 33rd but pretty close.
