Inspired by the people on this forum!
« on: December 10, 2006, 07:43:00 pm »
I usually build race cars,but decided to get a old lawnmower to drive around the pits at the race track.
One thing  lead to another and i found this forum and after looking at your guys amazing builds i decided to build one myself!

The more I look at the quality of fab work there the more impressed I am. The would look even better with some slicks on the rear and tucked completely in the fender. But man what a clean smooth line that thing has. Have to say it agin Very Nice. :+1:

Thankyou for the compliments! I check this site every day to see how George, and squidd and everybody are progressing. I am quite impressed with everbodys fabricating and attention to detail. I already have a idea on the next mower project. I think  i am hooked now. I build stockcar chassis on the side for other people and myself. I will leave you with a few pictures of my racecar i built for myself which my brother inlaw drives. My driving days are over but i would consider racing a mower if i can find any place in Nova Scotia Canada they race them. Im looking!!!!   Soon have some new mower pics.

How are you doing, your looking good!   :lol:
Never built a sprint car before,probably because they don't race them around here.
Putting the spindles on the mower now, i'll post some more pictues this weekend.
