Suspension

I was looking at a ferris commercial mower at how the machine had four wheel suspension, and wondered if anyone had tried it in racing.

I have seen one racing mower with 4 wheel independent suspension.  It looked like it was a real smooth on the track but in the cornors its leaned to the outside real bad.  I guess if you could get differnet springs it would do good.  then it would be like a race car then.

Yeah, suspension is definitely in the ATLM category filed under "to-do"
