42050 Drag Racer – will it really race?

The second project is about the 42050 Technic Drag Racer. Check the first part of the video below:

The Drag Racer has an impressive appearance

But it has some issues inside, like the lack of proper headroom and legroom

So we can try with a smaller driver

but I’m not sure he’ll be able to handle the situation properly…

As you saw in the video, the set itself is well designed and has a decent look. The problem is with the factory motorization option – adding the M-motor and the AA battery pack barely adds any functionality. Steering remains manual and you cannot even control the set remotely, I added the PF receiver to have at least some remote functions.

So, we have some work to do to have these issues corrected. Stay tuned for the next part!
