Electric drag cart Idea
I want to build a electric drag car, but don't have the cash to dump into it. This is an idea I thought of. Do you guys think it would work? If not what would be the problems with it.

Re: Electric drag cart Idea
that would work but when you throw it to 72 you might weld the contacts together
just be sure to put in a BIG cut off switch |

Do you guy think these relays would work? They have them in 400A 36v-48v
I think I might try roadys bypass idea. |

Re: Electric drag cart Idea
You might have to get rid of the F/R switch & go with Contactors for your F/R... If you are just going to drag race than bypass the controller all toghter at the line. Just use the controller to stage with.

Re: Electric drag cart Idea

Re: Electric drag cart Idea
Those solenoids are built with silver oxide contacts... they are rated at 400a continuous and 1000a peak. I have not seen one fail in the year we have been using them.
