“The drag racer is the main part of the set. This consists of an engine and a tail at the back, a seat for the driver, a steering wheel, a piece revealing that it is number 4, and a baseplate going to the front wheels. There are also large wheels at the back.”

“Dragster from this set is very simple in design. The basic element in this type of cars are small and narrow front wheels with large and wide rear wheels. The long plate to the front wheels holds the number 4 in front of the driver's seat.”
