I'm pretty sure that putting rockets on a dragster is against some rules.

It'll easily beat yesterday's RSotD, I'm sure.

Stunt Rally FTW

Geaux Tigers!

I don't remember flaming barricades being part of drag racing. Those things have glorified bicycle wheels on the front, and I don't think they'd do well under the impact.

Really good set right here, fun on its own but it really shines with 6714 Speed Dragster for a proper drag race. The technic beams with the flames are actually a pair of gates that, when a dragster hits them fast enough, knock into one of a pair of flagpoles and flip them up to show who won the race.
Doesn't work perfectly every time, but it's cool.

This car would look a lot better if they didn't slap a long blank plate on it to try to turn it into a dragster imo.

Sometimes I build oldschool sets when I have the parts. I think I have the parts for this one, but I don't really need a dragster.

I don't understand, this looks nothing like it's dressing like a woman

So, I finally acquired catalogs of 2002 and 2003 and yesterday I was browsing them. I noticed that the Drome Racers line had 6 or maybe even more pull-back motors, each designated by a gear stick position. For example, the small cars had gear 1 and gear 2 whilst the largest (and therefore most powerful by necessity) had gear 6 (in 2002 anyway).

So, I was about to call out that theme for reusing pullback motors and re-marketing them. But no! This set's pullback motor only appears here, in its counterpart 6714 Speed Dragster and the 2001 technic supplementary set 5223 Windup Motor. So they either just recolored parts of it or they really did create a full new set of at least 6 pullback motors in 2002! That's a lot of very similar and complicated specialty parts!

Idk, just found this fascinating. The large monorail supports seen here a nice too btw. And for a 2000s set the dragster looks quite good!

It looks so dumb. I love it.

Chip, the Yellow Tiger guy I guess.

Not sure if that was a reskin available in Stunt Rally for Barney's blue dragster.

Stunt Rally was a really cool game and the minifigs were pretty interesting too. The theme itself was ok-ish I'd say. Sure it was juniorised, but not to the point of City Center or Jack Stone. And it was apparent these were meant as playsets not display sets anyways.

And guys, there's literally no evidence to support this is a "Town" subtheme, especially if you insist modern day City is NOT a Town sub-theme.

EDIT:
Why even is Island X-Treme Stunts NOT considered a Town sub-theme??? If anything this should be a Town subtheme! It's based on a video game that is literally based on Classic Town!

They managed to hide the rocket pretty well......I see a V8, I see a pull-back motor....but no rocket anywhere!
