Top Fuel Dragster
Assemble me. Free my superpower!
Named for the very rich air-fuel mix of 90% nitromethane and methanol that powers the car’s 11,000 horsepower engines (the equivalent power of ten Formula 1 cars combined), a top fuel dragster consumes fuel at the rate of 11 gallons per second—the same burn rate as a Boeing 747 jet aircraft, only the dragster engine is four times more efficient! On the straightaway a top fuel dragster will leave the fastest Bugatti or Porsche in the dust—it's not even a competition. The quarter-mile record for top fuel dragsters is an incredible 3.6 seconds!
One look at the Top Fuel Dragster by Ugears tells you this is no ordinary toy car. The model is driven by a powerful spring motor and gear set that transmits power through the crankshaft and belt drive (a rubber band passing through a tensioner with roller) to the rear wheels, which have special silicone gaskets for extra grip. The DIY wooden model has a Start/Stop button, variable driving modes, and can rear up on its back tires when peeling out, just like a real dragster. The Top Fuel Dragster has an open "skeleton" body, revealing the beauty and amazing inner mechanics of this racer.
Top Fuel Dragster features:
- Powerful spring motor
- Travels up to 8 meters
- Performs rear wheel lift-off like real dragster
- Variable driving modes
- Silicone rear tires for enhanced traction
- Realistic dragster proportions and aerodynamic design
DIY wooden car features:

- Assembles without glue or special tools
- Step-by-step instructions in 11 languages
- Free replacement parts upon request
- Ready to paint or customize (paint not included)
I have assembled several UGEARS puzzles. This one was very difficult and many parts were fragile and I broke several during assembly.
To be fair, there tech support was great and sent out replacement parts.
After final assembly the gears didn't mesh properly and so the mechanism as flawed. Could have been my fault. I don't know...
Just be aware...
Dear Charles.
Thank you for your review.
If you need help with assembly, feel free to contact us at customerservice@ugearsmodels.com.
Now, this one is my favorite of them all!!! Not only has great looks but works great too!!! I did order another one to build and race them against each other!
Excellent kit, not too difficult, works great.
Cette maquette ne présente aucune difficulté pour la monter.
Elle est très amusante à faire fonctionner.
Very realistic model, impressive fine laser cut design and high power speed!
Great parts, easy assembly, EXCEPT The rear wheel assembly made me tear my hair out. Probably my fault, but none of the spokes wanted to hold position long enough to create a lined-up wheel.
Other than that, another great kit. Thanks!
Great model. I love Ugears! My 20th model
It took longer than expected for the number of pieces.
Fun to build and to use.
Great build!
Really fun and enjoyable model!
Have not started yet
le resultat finale est superbe, je l'ai recu pour noel et je n'est rencontre que de petits problemes au niveau de petites pieces, mais ce n'etait que de l'esthetique mais sinon je l'ai adoré
je les trouves toujours aussi bien les unes que les autres !
Buenos días UGEARS.gracias por esta maqueta me encanta,todo perfecto reparto y en muy buen estado ,sigan así UGEARS.
Really good model. Always remember when finished to run the gears several times, even 'push' a gear to get it 'meshed'. It may take 10 or more times. Only thing I would change is move the instruction for wind-up tool from end to page 22 to allow checking of gears easier. And figure out something better for step 4 on page 5: little pieces don't work well. Use what system from other models.
The Top Fuel Dragster is a very nice build, I do like the functional blower. Went together very well and looks really cool. Wind it up and it leaves on two back wheels.
Interesting to assemble, but the mechanism doest work properly using loose gears.
Fantastic model with a powerful engine, realistically rides on rear wheels at a fast speed. I had a lot of fun while assembling. You can watch the review on the channel Incredible Gears.
