Requires glue and needle-nose pliers, sold separately.

    Ultimate Axle Bushings Package of 20

    #58946
    $6.88

    Looking for a way to increase the speed and performance of your dragster? Try Pitsco’s Ultimate Axle Bushings – the ultimate in friction reduction.

    These bushings fit snugly into the drilled axle hole, providing a slick, flat outer surface that will rub against the wheel hubs – similar to the function of washers but even better.

    The interior of the axle bushing has been engineered to provide only a small amount of surface area that is in direct contact with the axle. In fact, these bearings provide a 94% reduction in the average surface bearing area – the area where friction is produced.

    Ultimate Axle Bushings – another innovation from your friends at Pitsco! Flange diameter is 0.313". Fits snugly in a 0.25" hole.

    Wind Bag

    #59659
    $13.99

    The Wind Bag is a high-tech, balloon-powered racer designed for both speed and distance. What makes it unique is a specially designed system that holds the balloon in place during its travel, thereby limiting friction and providing consistent thrust from the balloon. The kit comes with three different-size nozzles that maximize distance, speed, or combined speed and distance. Requires white glue and a drill, sold separately.

    Choking Hazard: Children younger than eight years old can choke or suffocate on uninflated or broken balloons. Adult supervision required. Keep uninflated balloons from children. Discard broken balloons at once.

    Alignment and drift
    Rolling and sliding friction
