Turbo 670cc Dragster RETURNS and Runs Quickest Pass Yet!

Pick up our newest sticker pack here: www.cars-camer...
Our Predator 670cc powered mini dragster is back! We've made tweaks to the engine and driveline- we installed lighter weights on our Polaris 1000 clutch for more stall, played with the carburetor jetting, and we install new junior dragster front wheels to shed some weight. In all, this modified Predator 670cc v twin is running better than ever! The draw through turbocharged v twin design is still working for us while we wait on our custom fuel injection system. With more tuning, we can up our MPH to reach our goal of 6.70 ET at over 100 MPH!

We were blown away by it's performance for the first run of the year!

[@JamesRK2]

Imagine how much better it would be if yall fuel injected it

[@Just-InTimeRepairs]

I thought you guys had 1.8 million subs? Now I'm seeing 1.1m.

[@seano2178]

Add 3ozs of Marvel Mystery oil to the tank when you run the methanol. It will protect the valve guides in the motor and the slide valve in the carb plus pickup close to a point or so in compression.

[@Copperworks.]

what happened to the riding mower that the 670 was on i started watching when you where building that and you guys are the reason that I'm into go carts and mini bikes

[@87mustang87]

Track will probably stop u at 7.0 in the 8th due to needing a thicker frame an cage around driver.

[@BobbyOfEarth]

If you guys switch to Fuel injection, the controller will monitor and adjust the fuel delivery to balance the EGT's of both cylinders. Plus to get max Hp...

[@_CryptoNoob_]

Or just switch that junk motor out

[@lukefrost1189]

Glad to see the rail back again, can't wait to see it run when you've got the fuelling sorted.

[@harryjohnson2]

FINALLY! This is what the people have been waiting for. This is by far my favorite project

[@TekedixXx]

So excited to see another vid on this beast. Idk why this project of all of your projects is the one that captivates me the most...

[@lilldebby2592]

No way y’all are at my home track Piedmont dragway 🤙🏻 hope to see y’all there one day

[@gorkuhmork]

A steal screen inside the intake before the split in the cylinders will help with fule atomization

[@JamesRK2]

Old school hot rod trick, but makes a massive difference

[@fastflat4]

I'm sure not all will agree, I love these videos of crazy drag builds and what not. But I miss the old smaller realistic builds for the grand pre. The average fan can't custom fab, but we can buy a go kart and do all the bolt on mod fun like the older videos. Either way. Always a fan and will watch all the videos

[@thomaskrehbiel2946]

“It will be fine”. You guys crack me up!!

Thats 6 pounds of rotational mass. Much more significant than other weight savings.

[@mixerman1]

I have loved this thing from the getgo. I wish it had a draw through supercharger and EFI. I bet Charles was in the 9's at around 70mph

[@kcrichton7485]

I love that you guys are still building this, you should do ceramic bearings in the wheels and axles etc next, its hardcore enough for it

[@mychaleporter6806]

Also needs a velocity stack....filter constricting n crunching

[@dwartfarquart9590]

You can buy k&n filters with an internal velocity stack in various sizes. When I ran motorcycle dirt track, they made a significant difference in midrange performance.

[@FeatheredDino]

For the blow by issues causing oil to spew into the intake, you could try venting the dipstick. Drill a hole, thread in a 3/8 hose fitting (or whatever size you want) and run a fuel line up high somewhere. That'll help alleviate a lot of the pressure that is causing oil to be forced out the crankcase breather and into the intake..

[@HellmuthsHotRods]

I think the car is pretty well set up based on the ET vs MPH. I have been racing my bug in 1/8 mile for decades from as slow as 9s, up to 7.30s (NA) and as I said your ET/MPH is right on. ET is generally an indicator of chassis setup, MPH power. My best is 7.37 at 92, so I think your 6.70 to 100 is close. I think that will be a bit over 100 mph actually. It's fun to widdle away time like this!

[@JohnHill-jm7tm]

This Old Man from Washington NC always enjoying your videos 👍. Love you Guys. 🛵🧔💝💝💝

[@KENNETHREAGAN]

I can’t wait to see what you do with the drag racer, but honestly I want to see you put a flat track tire on that minibike and a wheelie bar and see what Charles can really do

[@bigunone]

I still say you need to adapt a more tuneable carb something that flows more CFM with more jets available

[@j.w.3345]

Love that rail!! I know you’re going to hit that perfect combo/setting. It’s got more to give!

[@kno3me-wz3bo]

It's blowing out the spark up top power. Ya can hear it

[@kyleewert5630]

DUAL CARBS. Equal fueling, ability to get the engine the fuel it needs since you have been lean all along and drilling jets and choking the air down to compensate

[@oldcars46]

I really enjoy your show. The guys are out there. Having fun and doing the best you can and get good speeds. Keep up the good work. Great show

[@jesperwall839]

Yeah. Also much smaller carbs, so they can get more fuel and higher airspeed. Methanol requires 3 times as much fuel as petrol. 12:1 for petrol, and 4:1 for methanol. You also need different spark plugs when running methanol.

[@adamr9215]

Dual carbs won’t help when they are both running through a single turbo. They would probably have more problems if they tried to go to a blow thru set up. They would be better off putting an EFI set up on it.

[@ogrefreak5222]

​@adamr9215 of course they would, but that's a project for later. And you can dual carb. It's called a blow through. Not ideal to split the turbo output to two possibly leaky carbs but certainly doable. It's closed loop so pressure would be roughly equal. Heck twin turbo, crossover exhaust (turbo feeds opposite cylinder). That would be something interesting lol

[@adamr9215]

@@ogrefreak5222 You aren’t that smart, are you? I mentioned blow through carbs, so don’t go acting like I didn’t. Also, to go twin turbo, they would need to find even smaller turbos to spool decent.

[@gavincline209]

I’d say get a stand alone wideband O2 sensor and data logger onto a SD card if nothing else. It will show you pretty good where ya need to adjust the fueling to on a pass. Meth is tricky, very easy to run too lean and blow it up in an instant.

[@rayleon8861]

Great Job, need to change the air filter too restricted.

[@andrewcammer2535]

The 670 dragster is CRYING for fuel injection! 6.70 is a LONG ways from 7.70s. I wanna see you do it, but I think you'll find it's a heck of a jump!

Great vid guys, I was hoping it would be on this rail, after seeing the teaser from last week.

[@ericraherimanjato9688]

It just keeps getting better every time love it ❤

[@user-yg1uw5lo1n]

I watched a guy balance fuel by mounting a fin under the carb inside the intake. With a few snips and bends and by checking exhaust temps he got it "good enuff til the next race".

[@Jon_Flys_RC]

If you run into a clutching dead end reach out to heel clicker clutching. When it comes to snowmobile / cvt transmission systems they are infinitely adjustable in multiple points of the shift curve.

[@jamesmower1852]

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 the best I ever that Hayabusa taking off and then Charles pulling up behind it with his mini bike I love it 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍🔥🔥💯

[@ronniedale6040]

I tried the mc carb thing on draw through VWs take it from me the best thing you can do is throw a Weber idf on there in a blow through configuration with a divided intake. I made zero carb mods to mine for boost. Easier to tune and your fuel robbing issues for the second cylinder will be completely cured. You may also be overpowering the needle and seat on that bike carb. When they say gravity feed only they mean it.

[@Bikliy]

Been watching you for 7years omg time flys

[@rickigunter1960]

I have been watching you all for a while and I think you're working your way up a little bit at a time to top fuel drag racing

I think a dual-carb or EFI setup would be the way to go from here to allow your rail to breathe better than ever. This has always been a great build over the years and it can still go a long way.

[@yellowflyer37]

Hey guys, love what you have going here. Just some thought on your fuel distribution issues, having a largger intake manifold would help. The bigger the plenum volume (aka) "bucket" the cylinders can draw from would mix fuel better in your application and the cylinders will always have "literally" as much air as they will need. Boost (pressure) is importand AS WELL as the quantity avalible.

[@michaeljoeallen9412]

Cool! Sounds awesome.

[@michaelcrebbin7328]

Awesome boys it was great to see the dragger run again with sick times great job looking forward to the next vid 🥰🥰🥰

[@micahhittinger6083]

Losing that catch can lid tells me that boost was going around the piston rings. I had a 91 turbo Eagle Talon that would pop the dipstick out because it needed a rebuild. That was on stock boost.

[@csandy500]

I told you guys you were loosing spark last season. Look at your old night run videos and you can see this thing sparking on the dash. Good run!!

[@erikcourtney1834]

If y’all would up the rpm’s at the line it would wheelie better and would definitely 60’ way better. Don’t leave the line with little to no rpm, especially with a turbo. If you can’t hold it still do dual brakes on the rear or raise the stall more.

[@timbrindley451]

we have drag racing here in south east of fort worth off mansfield hwy

im ready to see the new rail run boys.

[@AndrewSkingsley-t6b]

Great to see the rail back !!!

[@BIllMcCambridge]

Great job guys. I like the idea of changing to blow through carb. The meth will cool the hot turbo air. And you will get better air/fuel distribution. You may wanna put an air fuel data logger or egt data logger. Yall are guessing whats wrong. You need data to make gains. Love the channel Thanks for sharing your talents and adventures!!!

[@jasonpetrich4141]

So you guys need to build a test hit lane out on the back 40. So you can test the rail before you get to the track and what ever else you might need to test on a drag lane 🤔 😏!!!!

[@electrogeek1124]

Need to put the carb after the turbo. I believe the centrifugal force the turbo puts on the air as it passes through separates the air and fuel mix and causes the fuel to go into one side.

[@Kasper88-disclose]

I love watching the rail on the dragstrip keep that content coming and I will always watch and like guys. You guys are awesome

[@gumbysenduro6546]

Sweeeet been looking forward to this for a while now awesome first run.

[@Xxjoker21xX]

The Angle you have the turbo Firing into the cylinders is why the Rear cylinder is getting more air than fuel! Straighten it into the intake to equally ! its Science Engines work better with Balance...

[@somenygaard]

[@dakotafox617]

When boosting small engines it is really beneficial to have some sort of intake plenum volume so you have equal fuel distribution and intake pressure for both cylinders

[@hokirwinsor8775]

Only really necessary on a single cylinder motor

[@Huntinghogs]

Have ya’ll thought about using a downdraft Webber with a split plenum intake? Might help with fuel delivery to each cylinder. Might be easier to set it up as a blow through instead of a pull through.

[@JayDayMoney]

Really need a 🧯at the rear where you located just for safety everybody looking past that just me tho‼️

[@Thomas63r2]

If you do get a 6.7x e.t., I would expect at least ~ 102 to 103 mph. Good luck - and I can't believe how good it sounds, it will sound even sweeter when you get it running right.

[@reviewaccount469]

Definitely starting to miss that 2nd video per week more these days. I still think C&C should consider doing more live talk show/Q&A/interviews stuff at night as filler, at least monthly if not bi-weekly.

[@320_allstar]

Been waiting for this for a while 😂

[@adammartin1786]

Well time to separate each bank and do twin carb and twin turbos to fix the flooding one cylinder 😂

[@AdamOpheim]

Might try a flat steel divider right after the carb. Similar to the turbo carb hats they use. Helps divert fuel and air equally to both cyls and would be quick and easy to install. also boost is gonna pressurize the crank case. YOu don't want to plumb that back into the intake. Get a good catch can and you don't need to plumb it back to the intake. Good luck!
