I build a 262 dragster ( stretched + reverse body ) from the revell 1:72 kit.
The fuselage is stretched and opened / wider at the front.

This is going to be wicked cool 😁😁😁
A couple of radial engines will be at least 2000hp depending on the type .
If it aint broke ,,fix it until it is .
Over kill is often very understated .
I know the voices in my head ain't real but they do come up with some great ideas.
Theres few of lifes problems that can't be solved with the proper application of a high explosive projectile .

A RADIAL engined dragster? Now that's something new for sure.  :thumbsup:
Kit's Rule 1 ) Any aircraft can be improved by fitting longer wings, and/or a longer fuselage
Kit's Rule 2) The backstory can always be changed to suit the model

...and I'm not a closeted 'Take That' fan, I'm a REAL fan! :)

Regards
Kit

I did some smaller work on the engines, injection tubes for every cylinder and two exhausts .

The exhausts are not very big compared to the engines, so the dirty blast should go powerfull straight up far over the pilot...

It just needs Jägermeister colors and markings.  ;)
