Altered or Front Engine Dragster

<< < (3/6) > >>

Curly1:
I am thinking about building a long wheelbase Altered. What I have in mind is about 190" narrow front and a small mono wing right behind seat. Also would like the body to be similar to the newer Top fuel Dragsters. Sort of a Flashback to the Future.
I think it would have several advantages that a standard altered does not have. My current Altered is 125" and has been around a while. I have it working really well now and think I want to move on and try new ideas and challenges. The long wheelbase Altered is the direction I am leaning.

Curly1:
Here is a nice one do not know who owns it but it is interesting.

Zooman:
That black beauty is owned by Russel Mills (Sydney Australia) and was built by Richard Botica - the same talented guy who built my Fossil Fueler injected nitro digger.

janjon:
OP: stretched altered, not FED, IMO. Wheelie bar upside down. IMO.
