92mph? My new Project, Racing mower! Craftsman / Jonsered LT12

LOL?

hope you plan on running this thing for strictly for drag racing. Mower fames are a little narrow when it comes to stability. Mine sits 46 in long by 32 in wide, 33 in tall, and on a 90 degree corner going 20, I feel like I'm going to tip. While Im probably just over boarding this thing, I really hope you plan on adding some sort of wind-shield. Running 90-some miles and hour and hitting a horsefly or something is going to HURT

Thanks for your concern, but this will be custom built, and not limited by any Width restrictions. the only limit is my head. I figured this would be 46-48" wide in the front, not so wide in the back. - The 820-037 Peerless is 30" wide total. With 9" wide rims should make it, Well 30+9+9- offset and bolt on. aprox: 45" wide in the rear. And it will be 2-5" of ground clearance. and no windshield.

Helmet and old school racing goggles

Just caught up on youtube videos and this thread, this is shweeet. The 4 link and custom frame are awesome. the pictures are very detailed and I cant wait till its done!! I wish I had a shop like yours hahaha

Front, 4-link design. Already changed this, kingpin (built in camber) is only 10 degrees here (mixed it up with caster :p ) will increase to 14 degrees.

I would like to do something like this for my mud mower.
Looks good.

Mine sits about 4 in off the ground, while 90-some MPH sound cool, it isn't to safe and something so small, even with good caster/camber/kingpin set. But if your extremely positive this is how you want it, down force is critical. And I honestly think your setting a record speed with it as well...Last thing I'd like to say is, Good luck.

I'm not even sure that it will be my actual speed tho, so I would'nt take it to serious

I think the worlds fastest lawn mower is 80+ MPH if you wanted to beat the record.

the requirements are that it has to have a max hp of 20 hp and has to have a lawnmower rear end in it if anyone was wondering.

Can I quote myself

Well sad news, the only page where I found this exact CVTech, they are: "Out of Stock".
And he wanted to sell me the weaker Comet / Clone model 40. By that I reckon they won't have them In stock anytime soon either.

Oh so you wont be getting it for a while?
