Front Engine Dragsters / What type of metel

« on: March 26, 2013, 05:22:45 PM »

This is my first time on the forum  , I have a few questions  if I may ask ? can a dragster be built with mild steel tubing?, is it legal in the states ?Can it be certified ?Chrome moly tubing is expensive and  I don't have a tig  welding outfit however I do have a mig and reg arc welders , my mig I can set it up for steel, stainless steel, and aluminum welding I have a milling machine and lathe and laying out in the yard I have 4 20 foot  I beams I could use for a jig to build a chassis on .I do know some door slammers use a mild steel chassis but  not sure about a dragster or maybe an altered.    Russ
