my lime green raceing lawn mowers

build video of one of my mowers

I spend lots of late nights in the shop working on them

no lincon lockers hear 124 bucks apiece from the local machine shop ive done lincon lockers before but they don't like to hold up to burn outs lol

i like the look of a color matched case to the body paint realay cleans up the years of corrosion





chalk blocked keeping them all dry shop roof has some leaks so a had them parked in the good side




the race mower work bench im going to build


on the bench

tractor pan seat welded to fender and molded in panted body color

more pics and updates coming soon

The tractor looks really long:P I like the tractor, the only thing I don't like is how the hoods are made on those, the lights look stupid.

agree if it was not for the exta cooling vents and the aerodynamics on the track id go with older hoods but older hoods crate more wind drag newer ones displace the air witch =less drag more downforce id be all over a older hood i woldent mind geting one of these newer hood just to use as a plug and make a 1 piece fiberglass or carbon hood

You should post some action videos of those machines... What kind of top speed can you hit on them?

Ours are more all around (race/offroad), but I'd like to see a straight racer run.

its so nice being able to work on mowers at a decent height my racers are 4 " off the ground and a bitch to work on the drive train i use this ever time i change a pully or any thing that requires unbolting stuff from under the mower got it built but not panted or ryno lined yet im a try to get a buddy to line X them after hours feel free to copy it the frame work is 1" box steel i have not seen a mower bench like this at any of the lawn and garden shops or any other shop i been it but ill tell ya what it sure is nice to have i built it out of scrap to so it was a free build besides the hitch pins and plywood the ramp come off so your not triping on them i also work on quads and gokarts on this bench it was the best highdea ever

no i pushed them up in neutral and if they don't roll comealong i feel it would be unsafe to drive up

But it sure would be fun to drive off at high speeds haha
