To build for any Us classes you must start out with a tractor with 20 inch or smaller rear tires. correct me if im wrong but i picked through the rules pretty good. Those look like 23's.

Yes they are. The local track around here doesn't go by those rules I'm sorry I forgot to point that out. I was just asking would the frame itself be strong enough, too heavy, etc... But thanks for pointing that out.

It will work great i race a wheelhorse in sp that weights 365 lbs. If you have enough ponys weight is not a issue.

The point is you are supposed to start with residential type mowers, NOT GARDEN TRACTORS.

So you mean to tell me, this guy would be disqualified for showing up to race this mower at a national event? I know for a fact I've seen some that I know came with bigger tires than listed run with no problems and not a word ever said.
