Default RE: 1/5th scale jet dragster....with afterburner..!!

Hey RacerEX,

I'd like to see it up against a brushless or nitro machine too, however, I don't think it would be much competition for them, the turbine is just too slow off the line. The top end speed would be no problem but it would probably take an eternity to get there!! Even with the afterburner it leaves the line at a fairly lesurely pace compared to electric and nitro powered machines of the same scale!!

Cheers,
Smithy.
