I think a much better value and exposure is on either RACEPARTDEPOT.COM OR RACING JUNK.COM. There does seem to be alot of ads on those sites.

I would think so, too. I've been on R/J for over a year.... 22,500 views . Four trade offers , three be-backs when they sell, nobody with cash. Maybe it's the same five guys viewing, waiting for the price to go down.
Not gonna happen...

Bobby, When I had the Omega for sale on here and R/J for a while , I put an ad in ND for a few weeks. I had a guy call and say that was the first time he'd seen it. He said he didn't fool with that "internet".
I wonder if there are still people out there like that fella.

IMO, the ND shopper sees a higher value represented in those classifieds. Most of the cars offered there are recognizeable, more easily researched and will quite often have images available on AI or DRC.

I see Mark Tallent's car has disappeared from the Dragster......sold?

Thumbs up Re: Nat'l Dragster Classifieds

Try RACEPARTDEPOT, it's all free right now so it won't cost a dime and that will include featuring the ad on the homepage and featuring it in the category you choose to put it in, just make sure to check them when you get to ad upgrades. Can't go wrong with FREE

I sold my superstocker in 2005. Went down like this. Placed an ad in Dragster sometimes in 2004. Ran for two wks. Got some calls, even some trade/money offers, nothing concrete. In 2005 I again ran the ad for a couple wks. Same scenario again. A few months later someone called and was really interested. I asked how did he know it was for sale, since the ad was long gone. I was told he found it in an old Dragster. He bought the car. Point being, people keep Nat'l Dragsters for awhile so the for sale section can be thumbed through over and over. For me it's the first thing I peruse. Top fuel, fun cars last. With todays economy, might take a long time to sell.

In 2005 I place an ad in National Dragster and on Racing Junk at the same time.
The ad was a couple of weeks making the Dragster during the time before the Dragster came out I received many trade offers from Racing Junk most for Junk and no cash.
The week it first came out in the Dragster I received a cash offer based on me delivering it.
I delivered and sold it via the Dragster.
The buyer said he did not view Racing Junk as there were to many ads to go through.
Dragster is pretty pricey but it seems to work.
My 2 Cents
