RE: rc drag body on 1:10 rc car
you probably know all this already but here goes.
In 1/10 HPI makes many bodies of muscle cars. I would consider these drag bodies unless you are referring to funny car bodies.
The HPI bodies are made for the 190 and 200 mm wide chassis. Depending on what wheels you put on them and the accessories; blowers, pipes etc, they can be made to look like a drag car. I just did a camaro that is set up for racing like the Mark Donahue camaro( I think I spelled his name right) of road track fame. You could also accessorize it to look like the old 'Grumpy Jenkins Camaros.
I put up a few pictures, hope they help.

RE: rc drag body on 1:10 rc car
yeah i have a hpi cuda at home that i am doing at the moment,
but i cant get a blower for it.
the ones with the blowers are for there monster trucks which are 1:8, not 1:10, so they will look odd.
any idea where i can get blowers etc that are 1:10 scale.
thanks
