Top burnout machines with the V6 but not really a dragger. Do it properly with engineers otherwise you can get caught out and cost more money in the end. Unless you don't care about the laws, and have dodgey contacts. Alot of guys say they have got away with the standard gemmy diff welded up, autos and engines would be cheap to get hold of. A mate of mine was going to slap one together for this years easternat's but did'nt get round to doing it, was only going to thrash it then wreck it afterwards for parts. A while back there was a RB30et setup in a gemmy for sale but needed alot of work, but what a weapon if you had that thing.
