The DR10 Drag Race Car Team Kit is based on the 9-time R.O.A.R. Short Course National Championship winning trucks.

Street Racing--An unsanctioned form of auto racing which occurs on public roads.

Racing in the streets is centuries old and started well before the automobile, but auto racing started the moment the second vehicle was created!

Modern street racing's roots go back to Woodward Avenue, Michigan in the 1960s when the three main Detroit-based American car companies were producing high-powered performance cars. A private racing venue was not always available, and therefore the race would be held illegally on public roads.

The DR10 Team Kit features a rear anti-roll bar, 26 precision ball bearings, a water-resistant enclosed receiver box, fully adjustable suspension, vertical ball ends for roll center adjustments, and 2.6:1 ratio gearbox with heavy-duty sealed gear differential and externally adjustable V2 slipper clutch.
