About the Scorpion Mid-Engine Drag Coupe:

The Scorpion Mid-Engine Drag Coupe represents innovative thinking in drag racing design from the 1960s. With its revolutionary mid-engine layout placing the supercharged 392 HEMI behind the driver, this dragster achieved superior weight distribution and traction compared to traditional front-engine designs. The Scorpion's unique configuration influenced future generations of drag racing vehicles and remains a testament to the experimental spirit of early drag racing engineering.

Mid-Engine Innovation:

The mid-engine placement was revolutionary for its time, providing better weight transfer to the rear wheels during acceleration and improved handling characteristics. This design philosophy would later become standard in modern drag racing and high-performance sports cars.
