885-HP Mazda MX-5 Miata Dragster Houses A Chevy V8 Racing Engine

Safety-wise, the Miata dragster has upgraded to new seat belts, while brakes have already been upgraded to discs on all fours. The front and mid chassis plates reinforce the chassis structure for stability. A parachute and wheelie bars are needed to keep this Miata from flipping over and get it to a halt.

As a bonus, the Miata for sale comes with two hoods, much like an outfit change option. Currently set up for 8.50-second index racing, this Miata drag racer has earned the prestigious title of being a twice-awarded NHRA Best Engineered Builder.

As for the price, well, this remarkable dragster can be yours for $22,000 as a roller (no engine or transmission included), but if you’re feeling a bit more adventurous and want the full package, the seller is open to selling it as a complete, running car for $39,000. Crazy dragster conversions aren’t exactly new, but this Miata is nothing we’ve ever seen before.
