Installed some led lights. First pic was with flash. Second from the same position without flash. Third is a side view.

Finally got to race today. Here's a video of my son driving his dragster for the first time and a time slip from the race. Also a time slip from the nitro car. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oD_NCy5YUI8
