Camaro Drag Car.
I started work on this chassis about 3 months ago in the spirt of competition with Wheelz25 to build the best XMOD drag car. We where going to lighten the chassis and mod everything and then race at the end of the build. Well Wheelz electronics broke and so it halted the build, then I broke one of my XMOD chassis, and I had left over electronics. I donated them to him and that kick started our build again.
I had bought a model body to fit to the XMOD drag car for the competition, and never really got around to building it. Now that I had some free time on spring break I spent my time working on the car and chassis.
The chassis weighs 40 grams lighter than a stock XMOD chassis, and the body weighs only 5 grams less than a stock XMOD body.
I had to extend the chassis to compensate for the longer body.
Mod list:
Light weight chassis.
Spin brush hybrid motor mod.
Power switch bypass mod.
Custom body.
Lenghtend chassis.
Locked diffrential.
Front wheels cut in half.
Cut driveshaft.




Picture above, and below. These are pictures of the custom mounting device. The thing in the rear window hides the rear clip that attaches to the chassis. I have put a nitrous bottle, a speaker thing, and an air hose. I think it looks really cool.

Now I lay me down to sleep, pray the lord my soul to keep, if I die before I wake, pray the lord my soul to take.
